Inclusive school environments don't just happen-they require continual fine-tuning to ensure every educator and student feels heard and valued. As school leaders, principals hold a crucial position within a school's structure that determines its success or failure to create an equitable school climate. Without sound leadership, teachers can flounder amidst the myriad inequalities facing their students-from racial and gender identity, socioeconomic barriers, homelessness, abuse, and neglect. A principal's devotion to actively understanding and counteracting these inequities-enacting practices that address them-is the vehicle for school-wide change, that can either propel, or bring to a halt, a school's culture of safety, opportunity, and inclusion.

Equipped with discussion questions, surveys, and practical action plans, principals will feel more prepared to embody their impactful role with strength, integrity, and unwavering commitment"--
