A Board Resolution Guide for California School Board Members and Advocates
California’s students deserve educators who reflect the rich, cultural, and linguistic diversity of their communities. This guide helps school board members, district leaders, and advocates turn educator diversity commitments into action.
Nearly 80% of California students are students of color, but only about 40% of teachers are teachers of color. Closing this gap requires local leadership, community advocacy, and intentional action.
School boards and community advocates have powerful policy and budgeting levers to help recruit, support, and retain educators of color. Local action and advocacy can help turn commitments into lasting change for students, educators, and their communities.
