Today we had the privilege of having Dr. Pedro Noguera speak to our staff members as part of the building based professional development on Superintendents Conference Day. Since the beginning of my doctoral course work I have been a huge fan of Dr. Noguera. His research focus is primarily on race and urban education. He often looks at school reform and how it will impact various races and he also does a lot of work focusing on decreasing the racial achievement gap.
His message was very powerful and a reminder of what urban schools must be doing for students in education.
If you ever have the opportunity to read his work, or see him speak I encourage you to seize the moment. Read more about Dr. Pedro Noguera. (Click here)
