Many education leaders may wonder how to implement sustainable policy changes that will benefit youth, families, and the community. Arielle Lentz, Laura Desimone, Amy Stornaiuolo, Katie Pak, Nelson Flores, Philip Nichols, Morgan Polikoff, and Andy Porter share findings from school change efforts in more than 170 districts in five states. They present six key strategies based on this work, and they share examples of how districts employed the success factors of specificity, consistency, power, and stability to help build authority, which in turn led to successful implementation of new policies, curriculums, and professional learnings.

Districts are struggling to accelerate students’ learning, support their health and wellness, and close the achievement gap. Labeled “worst” in 1987, by 2017 Chicago Public Schools was among the nation’s most improved school systems. Chicago’s story embeds many lessons about system change. Sharon Greenberg and Anthony S. Bryk illustrate how local research evidence helped leaders target a few high-leverage processes and informed their ongoing efforts to improve outcomes. Achieving quality enactment of these processes at scale depended on building capacity, which, in turn, took time.
各学区都在努力加快学生的学习进度,为他们的健康和幸福提供支持,并缩小成绩差距。芝加哥公立学校在 1987 年被评为 "最差",但到 2017 年,它已跻身全美进步最大的学校系统之列。芝加哥的故事包含了许多关于系统变革的经验。莎伦-格林伯格(Sharon Greenberg)和安东尼-布里克(Anthony S. Bryk)阐述了当地的研究证据如何帮助领导者锁定几个高杠杆率的流程,并为其改善成果的持续努力提供依据。要大规模、高质量地实施这些流程,有赖于能力建设,而能力建设又需要时间。

As people with power in schools, teachers and administrators make instructional decisions that shape opportunities in classrooms for students to learn. Educators’ words and actions, especially related to the treatment of students and their ideas, are foundational for creating equitable learning communities in our classrooms and schools. David Stroupe, Lindsay Berk, and Anna Kramer examine the creation and growth of learning communities through a particular lens of inequity: epistemic injustice. Briefly, epistemic injustice is a philosophical perspective that deals with inequities associated with knowledge and knowledge production practices. The authors provide concrete examples from two classrooms in which the teachers actively disrupt epistemic injustice.

In June 2023, the Supreme Court held that the admissions systems at the University of North Carolina (UNC) and Harvard University were racially discriminatory, effectively ending affirmative action. Are race-neutral admissions policies at selective K-12 schools next? Bob Kim considers two circuit court cases — Coalition for TJ v. Fairfax County School Board and Boston Parent Coalition for Academic Excellence v. City of Boston — in which plaintiffs alleged that schools’ race-neutral admissions policies were discriminatory against Asian American students. In both cases, courts found that the cases were not discriminatory. Although how the Supreme Court might rule if it hears these cases is unclear, the bar for finding policies discriminatory is high, requiring not only a desire to increase diversity but also an intent to harm a particular racial group.
2023 年 6 月,最高法院认定北卡罗来纳大学(UNC)和哈佛大学的招生制度存在种族歧视,从而有效地终止了平权法案。接下来,K-12 选校中种族中立的招生政策是否会被废除?Bob Kim 审理了两起巡回法院案件--TJ 联盟诉费尔法克斯县教育局案和波士顿学术卓越家长联盟诉波士顿市案,在这两起案件中,原告指控学校的种族中立招生政策歧视亚裔美国学生。在这两起案件中,法院都认定不存在歧视。虽然最高法院在审理这些案件时可能会如何裁决尚不清楚,但认定政策具有歧视性的门槛很高,不仅要求有增加多样性的愿望,还要求有伤害特定种族群体的意图。

Although some people view quantitative studies as more legitimate than qualitative studies, both methods are subject to bias, Iris Rotberg explains. The study’s methodological strengths and weaknesses are determined when researchers frame questions, choose samples and outcome measures, and collect data. These design decisions and their implementation are far more important determinants of research validity than are the subsequent data analyses, whether quantitative or qualitative.
