The unique challenges teachers and students of color experience in our schools
The workload for all educators is intense. For special education teachers, it may be even greater due to the range of students’ instructional needs, the nuances of multiple classroom instructional formats, and the quantity of due process requirements. Although all teachers experience stress, teachers of color (TOC) often experience unique stressors. The experiences that TOC endure are multilayered and complex. In this episode, you’ll hear an interview I did with Moemen Ibrahim and Danielle Danielles. Two special education teachers in St. Paul, Minnesota. They discuss the challenges that minoritzed teachers and students experience in our schools and what we can do to mitigate them.
Since the episode, Danielle was hired as an Equity Coach for the Office of Equity in Saint Paul Public Schools. Congratulations, Danielle!
