Taylor鈥檚 presentation, 鈥淗elping Teachers of Color Feel Included: What Can K-12 Leaders Do?鈥, on Thursday, June 22, at 2:00pm EDT, shares research, literature review and interview findings suggesting that administrators play a critical role in the successful onboarding of Black male educators when they strategically support them as they acclimate to school culture. With Black men representing just 2% of the K-12 teaching population, there is an urgent need for principals and district leaders to identify successful methods for recruiting and retaining these educators to ensure all students see themselves reflected in the school environment.

Taylor is a former classroom teacher, school principal, and district administrator with nearly forty years of experience in K-12 education, and has been fortunate to work with a wide range of school improvement stakeholders. A first-generation college graduate, Taylor fully embraces the role that education, mentoring and strong relationships play in navigating a path to success in the world of public education, and explores research topics that highlight these areas.
