21st Century School Leadership Academy

Leaders for equity transform education to improve access, opportunity, and inclusion for students and adults, especially those who are systemically marginalized and historically underserved, so that they can thrive. - 21CSLA Equity Statement

Educational Leaders (including school, district, and county office administrators, as well as teacher leaders) are invited to join colleagues from the California Subject Matter Project as we partner with our colleagues in the 21st Century School Leadership Academy. These free programs offer leaders both cross-disciplinary and discipline-specific tools to advance student learning and equity through localized professional learning, communities of practice, and individual coaching opportunities.

Inquiry: Why Now? Professional Learning Program

  • How can leaders leverage inquiry-based learning to improve access, opportunity, and inclusion for student populations whow have been historically marginalized and underserved?
  • Attend an Inquiry: Why Now program to discuss how fostering a culture of inquiry can support a sustainable quest for continuous improvement that can redefine the professional role of classroom teachers and substantively improve student learning.
  • Our next round of Inquiry:  Why Now? programs launch Spring 2023.

Universal Transitional Kindergarten

  • The 21CSLA Universal Transitional Kindergarten Leadership Initiative is preparing leaders to "lead for equity" in rolling out California's groundbreaking TK for all 4-year olds.
