Opening Event of CUNY-Initiative on Immigration and Education - Workshop Series

Thursday, February 25, 2021, 5:00 - 6:30 PM

In this workshop, you'll be introduced to the work of CUNY-IIE. Their professional development modules based on the Supporting Immigrants in Schools video series will be launched. They were created to provide activities and guides to help educators learn, act, and advocate with, and for, immigrant students in the classroom. Please see the event flyer here.

Additionally, they will be hosting four other workshops that cover a series of topics at the intersection of immigration and education, such as legal updates, UndocuArt, and organizing at the local and state level. The workshops are designed for families, educators, community organizers, and anyone who might be interested. View workshop series flyer here.

Join an ELL-focused educational leadership (SBL/SDL) cohort in Westchester!

CLASS for ELLs - offered in collaboration with the Hudson Valley RBERN and the Hunter College School of Education

Collaborative Leadership to Advance Student Success (CLASS) is an innovative, hands-on leadership development program. Candidates work collaboratively and learn by doing to improve outcomes for historically underserved students and to lead improvements in the systems and structures that have perpetuated inequality and unequal performance. This cohort will place a special focus on English learners on developing the knowledge and skills needed to lead improvements with this population, as well as to learn from a close study of English learners what it takes to improve learning and performance for all students.
