Why Race and Culture Matter in Schools
Closing the Achievement Gap in America’s
Classrooms
Tyrone C. Howard
“This book is at times disheartening and other
times inspiring; sometimes anguishing but always
enlightening.”
—From the Foreword by Geneva Gay,
University of Washington–Seattle
While race and culture remain important variables in how young people
experience schools, they are often misunderstood by educators and
school personnel. This accessible book presents empirical data from
schools that have improved achievement outcomes for racially and
culturally diverse students and focuses on ways in which educators can
partner with parents and communities. It is important reading for anyone
who is genuinely committed to promoting educational equity and
excellence for all children.
