Ensuring Support for Racial Equity in School

The COVID-19 pandemic and the nationwide reckoning about institutional racism have cast a bright light on longstanding inequities in our educational system.

On August 17, 2020 we heard from UC Davis experts about the latest research into educational disparities for Black and Latinx students, systemic challenges to creating change, and ways that schools and community members can support each other to improve all student outcomes.

 Ensuring Support for Racial Equity in School

This web forum is presented in partnership with the UC Davis School of Education, Yolo County Office of Education, Resourcing Excellence in Education (REEd), and the UC Davis Graduate Group in Education.
