Our guest, Adra Davy, describes inclusion as “a promise to our students that each one of them will be a valued, expert learner and a contributing member of the school society.” Yet, this promise does not always translate into intentional action. Davy adds, “We like to say 'all means all,' but when we look at segregated classrooms, do we mean it? There’s a mismatch between what we believe and what we’re doing.”

In this episode, we unpack the concepts of inclusion, ableism, and bringing students at the margins to the center. We also explore ways to ensure that all students are academically and socially included in our classrooms. Visit AVID Open Access to learn more.
