The CR-SE self-assessment was designed to support districts to develop and invest in culturally responsive school environments for every child. Culturally responsive pedagogy is not new (see: Gloria Ladson-Billings, Geneva Gay), but unfortunately, the practices often live in pockets, with individuals, and are not fully understood or embraced as a larger, systemic initiative on the part of school districts. The CR-SE self-assessment supports the effort to make CR-SE systemic and sustaining. We have outlined the beliefs, policies, and practices critical to building and fostering culturally responsive and sustaining learning environments.
