Question: Think about your school and its culture. Specific traditions, systems, and practices have all been carefully designed to meet a specific need. Sometimes they have been in place for so long, staff may not even know why they take place. Such activities as staff annual shirts, teacher of the year celebrations, birthday mugs, positive notes, monthly student awards, and beginning-of-the-year kickoffs play a role in contributing to a school culture. What current traditions, systems, and practices did you observe at your school when conducting the school equity audit (Module 1)? What steps would you take to preserve the traditions, systems, and practices of the past? How would you decide what to keep and what to discard? What new traditions would you like to start at your school, and what needs would they meet? When and how would you start the conversation about the school's traditions, systems, and practices? How will you propose your new ideas?
