Culturally Responsive, Relevant and Sustaining Pedagogical Endorsement (WIP)

Abstract

The need for an endorsement for high risk students is equally as important as the gifted endorsement touted by our school districts; however, the language makes this unattractive. By focusing on the issues of culture and disengagement within the school system, I am able to deliver the same message in a disarming manner. This paper explores how understanding the culture and challenges of the student creates connections that inspire success. The practices are founded in developmental and culturally relevant literature as well as 15 years of practice with students with varying risk factors.
