Welcome to the Durham Public Schools Professional Learning Schedule of Professional Learning! Here you will find a comprehensive list of PL sessions occurring throughout our district.
In this interactive professional development session, educators will explore the principles and practices of culturally responsive teaching, grounded in the research of Zaretta Hammond, Geneva Gay, Gloria Ladson-Billings, and Sonia Nieto. The session is designed to equip educators with actionable strategies to connect with diverse learners, build meaningful bridges between students' cultural backgrounds and the curriculum, and create inclusive learning environments that promote equity and engagement.
