Abstract
As schools become more racially, socioeconomically, and linguistically diverse, there are increasing calls for educational leaders to be more representative of student demographics and be explicitly prepared to advance equity through culturally responsive/relevant leadership practices. We discuss how applying an equity lens to three key content areas taught in leadership preparation programs (building relationships, culturally diverse practices, and practical opportunities for learning) can lead to both improved student outcomes and educator retention, particularly for teachers of color. We close with questions for school districts and leadership programs—and for aspiring principals and superintendents—to consider in bringing to life equity-oriented educational leadership practices.
