🎉 Exciting to see Toledo Public Schools on the American Association of School Personnel Administrators 2024 recognition list for the William L. Hunter Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Award! This #AASPA award recognizes districts making outstanding contributions through the implementation of innovative and comprehensive teacher and leader development programs primarily focused on strategies designed to increase staff diversity. Research shows that urban and low-income schools encounter greater difficulty in recruiting qualified teachers (Ingersoll & May, 2016), principals (Carver-Thomas & Darling-Hammond, 2017), counselors (Miranda & Arredondo, 2020), school psychologists (Henderson et al., 2016), and paraprofessionals (Rockoff et al., 2011). One solution showing promise is providing current staff career advancement opportunities that result in increased responsibility, compensation, and impact. TPS refers to these programs as Grow Your Own (#GYO) and has 25 years of experience successfully targeting and filling traditionally hard-to-staff vacancies in high need schools. TPS has found that implementing GYO strategies, providing support for individuals to ensure they can attain a license, and developing comprehensive recruiting materials to attract candidates can help the district work towards a more diverse teacher and administrator workforce. Given the state of educator staffing shortages, these programs have become essential in filling vacancies. TPS has seven current and active programs built to develop and support individuals interested in teaching or leading in a TPS building. All of these innovative programs have worked to increase the number of teachers in classrooms and leaders in buildings! TPS is always looking to lead the way and do what is best for students! #TPSProud

How is it that Collegiate Recovery Programs and Communities are thriving at HBCUs with Black & Brown students in recovery and Black and Brown allies but our PWI communities are still homogeneously white males with only few exceptions? While I know the answer to the question, I don’t yet have a solution.

Distinguished Professor of Economics @UNC-FSU | Research Associate, Cook Center @ Duke | Health | Labor & Immigration Economics
I have a professional update to celebrate (and others to come!). I have been selected the 2024 Educator of the Year by the Minnesota State Board of Trustees. This is the highest honor award for excellence in teaching in the entire Minnesota State system. Only 4 are selected out of dozens of applications. I am grateful to have several mentors and inspiring students in my professional journey who motivated me to pursue better and more innovative ways to delivery my teaching and to connect students to more relatable experiences and real world examples with maintaining high academic rigor. Some of my innovations include mixing a traditional course on Labor Economics with a study abroad component, jigsaw activities to discussed peer-reviewed articles, simulations of immigration process experiences, Pre and Post Debates, self introductions in online courses with sharing gratitude and savoring experiences, and incorporating students to real data to analyze local issues. Further, my activities also include direct discussions on equity, disparities, implicit bias, and examples that demystify the economics profession. #IlookLikeAnEconomist

Director of Grant Writing & Innovation | Grant Writing, Innovation, Inclusive Excellence, Organizational Change, Educational Leadership, Philanthropy, Corporate and Foundations Relations, Equity.
TSL is a very impactful program to retain effective diverse teachers in high need schools. I reviewed the program in person in DC when it was then known as TIF and have so after now under TSL. Great to see the impact of TSL. It comes down to the powerful mechanicals to retain talent: pay as incentive and professional development- decades of research to show that it works. It seems even more urgent given teacher recruitment and retention needs of schools districts as they seek evidence-based grant interventions such as TSL.
Today, ED is announcing nearly $115 million to support 29 Teacher and School Leader (TSL) Incentive projects, bolstering ED’s commitment to a well-prepared, diverse, & sustainable educator workforce. https://lnkd.in/gy9_Yrju

Recently, I attended Mission 44's Diversity in Education Summit. The event was aimed at addressing the critical topic of needing to increase ethnic diversity in the education workforce. As a Youth Advisory Board Member at Mission 44, I had the honour of being a reporter for the event. You can read my blog of the event here: https://lnkd.in/dXkXfP8b The event reinforced the value of our aim at Mission 44, to increase diversity in the teaching profession. After having engaged with passionate individuals committed to breaking down barriers and exploring new innovative approaches, I am more determined than ever to find new ways to transform the current education system. #DiversityInEducation23
Earlier this month, we hosted our first-ever Diversity in Education Summit. The event brought together young people, leaders, teachers and researchers from across the UK’s education sector to discuss the barriers that teachers from diverse backgrounds face and what needs to be done to increase representation in the classroom.

#ICYMI Tumaini, a fourteen year old participant of our Wezesha Vijana program, could not help but celebrate her father on #FathersDay for his unwavering support of her education. She is especially grateful for his assistance with her secondary school scholarship application, where he meticulously gathered and submitted all necessary documents.

Public K-12 is often considered a public good. Why not higher education? Thx to Yolanda Watson Spiva and CCA for continuing the discussion. How do we frame our conversations around this ‘public good?’ Living and working a state focused on economic and workforce development, I see a pretty clear linkage between the value of post sec as a public good and the continued identification and development of more opps for all South Carolinians. Instead of why … ask why not?
"To restore public trust in higher education — which can increase participation in our democracy and improve civic culture — we must reframe higher education as a public good." - CCA President Yolanda Watson Spiva, Ph.D., BCC. Dr. Watson Spiva has been in Indianapolis today, presenting and meeting with higher education and policy leaders from across the country as part of the Civic Learning and Democracy Engagement Coalition, of which CCA is a lead partner. #CCADoesTheWork
