Exploring the behaviors and actions that promote racial justice in K-12

The Hallmarks of an Anti-Racist K-12 Institution

Making progress on racial justice issues is an ongoing priority in the education system. In doing so, institutional leaders must include a balance of both immediate, short-term actions with longer-term strategies. From policies and curricula to institutional history and community relations, leaders must navigate the complex systems of K-12 education to uproot structural racism. But where to start?

Becoming an anti-racist institution involves a conscious, active, and ongoing effort to address the multi-dimensional aspects of racism in our communities and society. EAB has defined the following hallmarks to guide institutional leaders as they develop their journey towards racial justice. The holistic framework illustrates areas that span across units and function to transform the experiences of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) community members.

This infographic offers an interactive experience to learn about each of the hallmarks through the lives of four BIPOC community members. Click through to meet each person and read about how institutional structures and behaviors have impacted their experience. Then dive into each hallmark to learn about its key attributes and discover examples of what the hallmark looks like in practice.

Hallmarks of Anti-Racism Framework for Public Schools

Strategy and Operations

Consistently Assess District Strategy, Policies, and Operations Through a Racial Justice Lens

Avoid being “colorblind” in strategic visioning, planning, budgeting, and resource allocation, and intentionally consider the impact of all decisions on Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC). Create structures that support coordinated and sustained implementation of racial diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts district wide. Build shared buy-in, ownership, and accountability for progress toward racial justice and do not disproportionately burden BIPOC in critical anti-racism work.

Key attributes include:

Ownership and accountability
  • Creating cabinet-level leadership over DEI and anti-racism efforts with appropriate funding and scope of role
  • Incentivizing an ongoing commitment to anti-racism among all district leaders and individual schools and actors
Data-driven strategy
  • Recognizing and interrogating data biases; using data to set clear, long-term strategic goals for racial justice work
  • Assessing, tracking, and publicly reporting on progress and key performance indicators by intersectional demographic characteristics
Finance and budgeting
  • Considering the impact of budget models, budgeting decisions, and funding allocation on racial justice
  • Updating procurement practices and dedicating work contracts to BIPOC-owned businesses
Board engagement
  • Engaging in work to increase diversity of board membership
  • Helping the board understand the impact of structural racism on K-12 education and their role in advancing racial justice

Estefania Rivera, Parent: (translated from Spanish) “We just got a new superintendent for my district who, once again, declared closing achievement gaps between students of color and White kids is a priority. How much of this is lip service? Every few years we get a new program of some sort, but I never know what’s supposed to change for my boys and I don’t see any real progress.”

Profiled Example: Albemarle County Public Schools

ACPS operationalizes their anti-racism policy by prioritizing discrete areas for immediate, data-driven action and empowering an accountability team to spearhead implementation.

Curricular & Co-Curricular Experiences

Create and Scale Curricular & Co-Curricular Experiences That Are Reflective and Inclusive of BIPOC

Recognize how curricular design and instructional practices commonly whitewash disciplines, reinforce racist ideals, and impede the learning and engagement of BIPOC. Interrogate the consequences of legacy practices related to student academic placement and progress and ensure that BIPOC students have equitable access to education- and career-enhancing services and supports.

Key attributes include:

Early childhood education
  • Investing in the expansion of high-quality, universal early childhood education for BIPOC youth

  • Ensuring BIPOC students have equitable access to diverse and inclusive career exploration, mentorships, professional skill development, and experiential learning opportunities

Aaliyah Jackson, Student :“I heard that in AP Government and Politics, students get to work on a cool project where they research the history of housing inequity in our neighborhood and interview community nonprofits who are working to solve the problem. It sounds amazing! But I need to have a 3.2 GPA to get into the class and I’m at a 2.9, so my counselor advised me not to try for AP and ‘stick with what will set me up for success.’”

Michael Gray, Teacher: “I’m the only teacher who uses non-Eurocentric lessons with my students. I still teach about the Middle Ages and the bubonic plague, but instead of just focusing on what was going on in Europe, my class also talks about the plague’s effect in Cairo and on the Islamic world. I see my peers only doing what’s comfortable for them, not what would broaden our students’ perspectives.”

Profiled Example: Orange County Public Schools

Through their Advanced-Course Placement Matrix, Orange County Public Schools developed a data-driven way to expand advanced-course access and ensure ongoing commitment to the district’s equity goals.

School Climate

Build an Inclusive Climate that Promotes Learning and Safety for All Community Members

Engage in productive, open, and ongoing dialogues about enduring racism across the district. Foster communal learning and growth and provide regular opportunities for community members to recognize and disrupt their own biases. Create a safe and open environment for BIPOC to share experiences of bias or harassment and ensure that such incidents are taken seriously and appropriately addressed.

Incident reporting and response
  • Confronting racist acts (e.g., hate crimes, bias incidents), including a transparent reporting system and response team with strong institutional norms of investigating, and appropriately sanctioning incidents
School safety
  • Reimagining security and school resource officer programs to balance student well-being with safety considerations

Aaliyah Jackson, Student: “I told my homeroom teacher that I want to be a teacher, too. She told me that I’d never make it because I’m too loud and I’d need to straighten my hair to look professional. I know her response was wrong, but who do I even tell? I’ll just keep it to myself.”

Nik Bluestone, Alum: “I can’t recall any major fights ever breaking out in my school and our neighborhood wasn’t dangerous at all. But one day I brought in my grandfather’s bow to school for a project and I almost got suspended by security. One even muttered that kids ‘like me’ are the problem and I should go back to the reservation.”

Profiled Example: A Systemic Approach to Managing Behavioral Disruptions in Early Grades

EAB’s research on how educators can effectively prevent or manage student misbehavior instead of traditional discipline methods highlights four high-impact, systemic practices to set the foundation for a districtwide response to behavioral disruptions. Districts can also reimagine discipline and school safety through Student Safety Coaches, an alternative to School Resource Officers.

Teachers and Staff

Sustain Investment in Recruiting, Developing, and Advancing the Careers of BIPOC Teachers and Staff

Actively monitor trends and disparities in employee racial diversity across all phases of teacher and staff hiring, retention, and promotion. Ensure that racial representation is reflected across functional areas of the district and that BIPOC are not primarily relegated to financially vulnerable positions. Invest in the ongoing professional development of staff and create viable pathways for BIPOC to advance into leadership roles.

Key attributes include:

Teacher pipeline
  • Building equitable, inclusive, and supportive pathways into teaching for BIPOC (e.g., grow your own programs, teacher residencies)
Hiring practices
  • Implementing equitable and inclusive hiring practices for all teacher and staff roles (e.g., recruitment networks, job ad composition, hiring timelines, interview and evaluation criteria)
Induction and support
  • Considering the explicit impact of school and course placement practices on racial justice goals; creating robust, inclusive teacher induction programs and practices
  • Providing equitable access to ongoing, high-quality, and inclusive mentorship and professional learning opportunities
Career advancement
  • Providing equitable and inclusive networking and leadership development opportunities
  • Ensuring equitable evaluation criteria and structures lead to recognition, advancement, and leadership roles

Michael Gray, Teacher: “A student was shot and killed in a nearby neighborhood. Since I’m one of two teachers of color at this school, I have a flood of emails from my Black and Brown kids wanting to talk. It’s going to push back my lesson planning and grading for the day, but it’s important that I make the space to talk to my students, even if my principal won’t be happy.”

Profiled Example: Cherry Creek School District

When their teacher workforce was not reflecting the increasing diversity of the student body, Cherry Creek SD decided to take a systemic approach to recruiting diverse teachers—recruiting and training their own students through their Future Educator Pathway program.

Institutional Culture

Center and Celebrate the Lived Experiences of BIPOC within Institutional Culture

Acknowledge and address their historical complicity in racial segregation, oppression, and slavery. Ensure that district traditions and symbols are reflective of the diversity of the broader community and elevate the cultural assets of BIPOC across all dimensions of the student, staff, and alumni experiences.

  • Setting protocols for future decisions regarding district facilities and symbols
Alumni engagement
  • Engaging BIPOC alumni as lifelong members of the school community (e.g., through events, newsletters, mentorship opportunities) in an ongoing, targeted, and culturally responsive way

Nik Bluestone, Alum: “I only recently realized how problematic it was for our school mascot to be a Native American—actually, a Hopi warrior. I used to laugh it off when friends pointed and said it looked like me. More and more I recall the microaggressions I faced, but my school still won’t take those experiences seriously and address the problem.”

Michael Gray, Teacher: “I tell my students the history behind our school namesake – that he was a community leader who amassed a fortune trading slaves. My students always look at me in shock – and some even look betrayed. My peers aren’t having these conversations. One parent even emailed me to ‘stop telling my daughter we’re racist just because you’re an angry Black man.’”

Profiled Example: School Districts in Monroe County, NY

Recognizing the necessity to engage students in critical discussions around Rochester’s history with issues of equity and social justice, 23 school district superintendents across Monroe County, NY shared resources to develop a county-wide anti-racism curriculum that would create broad engagement and shared understanding—no matter what school students attended—of the race-based disparities they witness in their day-to-day lives.

Community Partnerships

Establish Robust Partnerships to Advocate for Racial Justice in the Local and Extended Community

Seek and center the leadership and lived experiences of BIPOC to understand and heal legacies of racial trauma in the local community, region, and in society writ large. Reevaluate relationships with businesses and organizations that perpetuate cycles of systemic racism and inequity and commit to sustained investment in infrastructure and partnerships that uplift BIPOC communities.

P-20 partnerships
  • Building accessible pathways into higher education through ongoing, and well-funded partnerships (including HBCUs, HSIs, and MSIs)
  • Creating equitable and inclusive teacher, staff, and school/district leadership pipelines and development programs for BIPOC

Estefania Rivera, Parent: (translated from Spanish) “I work two jobs to support my boys, so I can’t always make it to ‘Back to School’ nights, and we don’t have a working computer in our home. My sons’ teachers are always sending emails asking to talk to me about their grades, but I only get them once a week if I go to the library. I’ll just keep relying on my boys to keep me updated on any major news.”

Profiled Example: Fresno Unified School District

As a large urban school district serving areas of high poverty and diversity, Fresno USD recognized that their parent engagement strategies did not effectively reach all parents in the district. Fresno USD created Parent University, a culturally sensitive approach to parent education to support all parents in engaging in their child’s academic, college, and career journeys.

Board engagement
  • Engaging in work to increase diversity of board membership
  • Helping the board understand the impact of structural racism on K-12 education and their role in advancing racial justice

Lisa Gai, Head of DEI, “My number one job is to build trust within the school community in our DEI efforts and build capacity for the work across each school. But my job becomes difficult when parents, alumni, even the Board want immediate, bold action. We can’t get everyone on the same page and undo centuries of systemic racism with a 30-day plan.”

Lloyd Bello, Parent, “The school said that they’re taking racial injustice seriously and they’re reviewing policies and practices by this fall. It’s the start of the second term now, so I went on the website to look for an update, but I couldn’t find one. I guess it was all talk and no action. Me and some other families of color will be writing our own action plan if the school won’t.”

Profiled Example: Grace Church School

As an example of their Board of Trustee’s commitment to DEI and racial justice, Grace Church School created the Institutional Culture Committee, a Standing Board Committee that seeks to foster a culture that embodies the school’s ideas around diversity, inclusion, belonging, antiracism, and sustainability. The ICC is composed of various school stakeholders, with chairs appointed by the Board from its trustees.

  • Ensuring equitable access to diverse and inclusive career exploration, mentorships, professional skill development, and experiential learning opportunities

DeAndre Williams, Student, “My friends don’t understand why some high school kids—like the Black public school kids we volunteer with—don’t get tutoring for SATs like they do—as if everyone can afford it. I think my friends would get it if we talked about equity in class, but my teacher never brings it up. There’s a reason why there’s a low-income neighborhood right down the block from us.”

Profiled Example: YES Prep Public Schools

YES Prep Public Schools developed a noncognitive curriculum to address the nonacademic barriers that often derail students once they are in college, including students’ ability to understand and handle racism.

Lloyd Bello, Parent, “There is a group of parents who are working on a petition to get the school to suspend a faculty member of color who had the courage to talk to the kids about George Floyd. Sure, I know firsthand that the effects of slavery didn’t end with abolition, but how is the school going to work with these parents to build their awareness and understanding?”

DeAndre Williams, Student, “We’re learning about the Civil War in history class and one kid blatantly called me the n-word, in front of the whole class and our teacher. My teacher just called him out and said not to do that, but there wasn’t any other action. She seemed kind of flustered. I talked to him myself and he apologized, but what if this happens again? What else can my teacher do? I don’t think incidents like this are even tracked.”

Profiled Example: Georgetown Day School

Georgetown Day School recognized the importance of engaging all parents in learning about antiracism and they have created differentiated programming for BIPOC parents and their white allies.

Faculty and Staff

Sustain Investment in Recruiting, Developing, and Advancing the Careers of BIPOC Faculty and Staff

Lisa Gai, Head of DEI, “I conducted a listening tour when I started at the school and our faculty of color have lost trust in administration. They said before we can hire any more diverse faculty or staff, we need more support systems for BIPOC and fair performance evaluations. They also want me to create professional development programs for their White peers on how to navigate conversations around race and social justice. I know we need a data-driven strategy here, but I don’t have the capacity to conduct an assessment and launch these programs on my own. I need a team.”

Profiled Research: 14 Practices for Hiring Top Talent

Use EAB’s best practice strategies for hiring top talent based on criteria that matters most. Focus on strategies such as centrally collecting hiring data to cultivate data-drive strategy behind recruiting efforts (practice 1), expanding beyond independent school-centric recruiting sources (practices 11 and 14), and developing an evidence-based hiring process (practices 5 to 9).

DeAndre Williams, Student, “We’re a school in the northeast and we’re all proud of our founding fathers’ belief in education for all, White or Black, landowner or freed slave. I’m proud of it, too, but I was shut down in class once when I tried bringing up that one of the founders invested money in the school from selling slaves. Our teacher didn’t think it was worth talking about, but shouldn’t we admit that there’s more to our founding than a happy story of education for all?”

Profiled Example: Bates College

Bates College reframed their institutional legacy by including the community in an exploration of their founding narrative, where faculty probed the college’s connection to the slave economy, students investigated artifacts through research projects, and the institution affirmed and promoted their work to the broader community.

Community Partnerships

Establish Robust Partnerships to Advocate for Racial Justice in the Local and Extended Community

Jessie Montenegro, Alum, “My school takes a family approach to college advising during junior year, but my parents never got much out of it because of the language barrier and their work schedules. All the other kids’ parents had biweekly meetings with a faculty member or a counselor to answer their questions, make sure their kid was on track to building a well-rounded application, and even get a head start on financial planning. I wish the school would put more effort in with families like mine. My parents are now completely out of touch with my college life, and they don’t understand how I can make a career out of working in social justice.”

Profiled Example: Fresno Unified School District

As a large urban school district serving areas of high poverty and diversity, Fresno USD recognized that their parent engagement strategies did not effectively reach all parents in the district. Fresno USD created Parent University, a culturally sensitive approach to parent education to support all parents in engaging in their child’s academic, college, and career journeys.

Student Enrollment

Expand Enrollment Strategy to Promote Access for BIPOC Students

Elevate a racially diverse student body as a fundamental asset to building a school community and a central component of overall vision and strategy.

Admissions and enrollment
  • Updating policies (e.g., role of legacy and sibling considerations, standardized test scores) and practices to reduce bias and support racial equity in admissions
  • Evaluating and reducing barriers to enrollment and attendance (e.g., transportation, school uniforms)
Affordability
  • Invest ongoing resources to promote affordability for historically underserved BIPOC communities through pricing and financial aid distribution policies

Jessie Montenegro, Alum, “My family is Peruvian. My parents don’t speak English, but we get by. I was on my own to figure out that I could get a scholarship to an independent school instead of going to the public school in our neighborhood. I translated all the documents they had to sign and acted as a translator during our family interview. I thought that a school like mine would have resources for my parents, but they didn’t—and still don’t.”

Profiled Example: Implementing Indexed Tuition at Your School

Reach families who have not traditionally considered independent schools by implementing indexed tuition. As opposed to an offer of “aid,” indexed tuition focuses on the language of affordability with families seeking aid around what they are able to contribute.
