Conduct needs/interest survey and work from there to connect students and families to resources that would best meet their needs/interests.

How can we see the connections between the ES principles and the META throughlines, and use these as our North Star -- our core values, against which we test all choices, initiatives, etc.?

I plan on listening more authentically and being present

# data[].attributes.body
I keep coming back to libraries as community centers and how we might build that. The matrix activity today has really made me think about two way communication and confronting power. I want to continue to think about what that looks like in my work as a teacher librarian.

I will continue to work on ways to encourage two way communication between the school and our families. Make them feel like their voices are being heard.

Engaging with my staff on professional learning around culturally sustaining pedagogical practices using the lens of the ethnic studies matrix.

Integrate ethnic studies into the school- establishing clubs, bring in community org. to speak at assemblies, ethnic studies days, etc. to promote inclusion and community.

# data[].attributes.body
I want all students to know what is available and why.  I want us to feel comfortable discussing the issues and feel safe talking to their teachers, counselors or admin about concerns but to also share strengths they are seeing at our school site.  How are we  succeeding in our efforts and where do we need help and support.  Reaching out to parents on these issues.   make them feel like they are part of the process

Recognize when I am the power

Use the matrix when I am doing my day to day work to make sure, or strive to, center community and confront power. Spend more time listening to students and families so that I can be instrumental in creating the type of community we are talking about here today.

Work to bring the community into our school and connect with students in a new way educationally.
Always remain a listener and then strategically take action

Use Carolyn's matrix as a guide for authentically involving families and communities 'on campus.'

# data[].attributes.body
I plan to think from the perspective of our families and how our services will be of benefit to them.

# data[].attributes.body
Reach out to families to create that relationship from the beginning! Then, if there is a praise to be given or an issue to discuss, there is already this mutual trust in the student's partners in education (parents, families, teachers, admin, etc.).

# data[].attributes.body
Continue to ensure students are enrolled in ES courses either at our site or through dual enrollment. Bring in more community partnerships to support our students beyond just sharing our current "resource list". Be specific and ensure student has access to find, call or visit the community supports in our area of SB.

I plan to continue to be curious and open to learning more...about different ethnicities and their struggles and contributions , our community resources and how we might begin to partner with them in meaningful ways.

As a part of better understanding our community resources, when the world opens up again, I'd love for our monthly counselor meetings to physically take place at different organizations in our community as a way to introduce us to the various spaces and the work they are doing in the community.  I'd love to start making this connections myself, but know that it will be challenging to find the time, so I thought building into what we are already doing  might help create a space for all of us to reach this goal of centering the community.

# data[].attributes.body
I am working with our team to ensure that we are supporting our teachers who are in the classroom teaching the Ethnic Studies course, engaging the parents, and continue to improve our practice of being focused on equity on our campus.

# data[].attributes.body
Continuing to think about how we communicate (or don't) the value of students especially those who have been marginalized by our institutions. I'm continuing to think about "intervention centers" -- why teachers send students there, what students need, how the space is framed... Let's shift these spaces/policies/practices to ones that center, uplift, and celebrate the knowledge students bring. And, engage ALL staff in this dialogue, so it is not just those who want to engage in ES pedagogy...

Continue to find ways to support the extension of this learning (both pedagogy and praxis) beyond E.S. Courses in High School.

One example is the development of a coherent professional learning plan for teachers TK-12 based on these principles.

Continue building a diverse collection of library books to try to represent multiple perspectives, passions, interests, and identities! Continue to collaborate with teachers—especially the ES teachers—to provide resources they need. Ask students what kinds of resources they want to see in the library. Provide multiple ways for students to give feedback about library services.

# data[].attributes.body
Examine our current practices and Board Policies and ARs through the 7 Cs lenses; we have barely begun doing this and even at a quick glance some of our policies support inequitable structure/status quo vs more equitable and supportive practices that center students and community.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Amy about continuing to build collections that represent multiple perspectives. I am also thinking more ways to solicit community involvement in the library. This includes reaching out to community partners and also our families so it really is community space.

• Use this matrix when considering policies and supports we are developing at the district level within student services.
• Revisit the Non-Western Knowledge Paradigms often to have a critical lens on our policies and practices, consider how/if existing ones are rooted in white supremacy, in order to make our spaces more representative of these knowledge paradigms.
• Work to center student voices in the work we are doing to hit that top right quadrant.

1. Support our teachers and regularly check in with them to learn what they need- be there to back them up and celebrate their successes.

Continue to build out classes so we have more and more offerings for our students.

I personally need to engage with the community more. I am a life-long Santa Barbarian who used to be much more involved but have retreated into a personal bubble as I have gotten older and busier. I need to prioritize getting to know my own community again.

1. Learn more about the community resources mentioned on the beginning of the presentation
2. Build a partnership with community  resources and provide info to our families.
3. Look at the current clubs we have at our school

Would love to bring this training to all teachers at SBHS. And, students that hold a leadership position (club leaders, pathway leads, etc).

I will continue to institutionalize ES in our schools by centering these principles in each conversation I have with teachers, PLCs, sites, and my Leadership Team. I will use the ES Matrix to guide my own thinking, and help push the thinking of others. I will try to be aware of when I am the person in power, and ways I can share or cede that power to people who are disenfranchised.

# data[].attributes.body
As a work with students and their parents, to be mindful of the matrix, as well as my own implicit bias. Think about what institutional policies we have that are not supporting our students/families.

# data[].attributes.body
I will consciously provide specific opportunities for school counselors to use Carolyn Torres' matrix to analyze their work on behalf of students and families.

Sometimes I am the power.  Be mindful of when others are bumping up against me.  See that as an opportunity rather than a frustration.
