Equity and Citizenship Advocates in the Era of Covid-19 and Beyond
By: Sophia Mendoza, Director, Instructional Technology Initiative - L.A. Unified Division of Instruction
As we bring closure to the 2020-2021 school year I would like to take this opportunity to thank our entire community for finding the time to invest in the growth of your leadership skills and dispositions. This was a year of collectively redefining the role of an educational leader in the era of Covid 19 and beyond. Leaders from across our 720 square mile L.A. Unified footprint have re-imagined instructional practices in both virtual and hybrid settings, found themselves in the seat of the learner all the while getting comfortable and confident with articulating learning in new ways.
