A summer professional development program for Arizona educators to bring culturally responsive experiences and learning to all students, across all subjects.

Culturally responsive, inclusive education calls for educators to lead bravely, recognizing that all students belong.

Engaging students inside a culturally responsive framework assures that they see themselves in the lessons and materials being taught. When we include students through the origin stories, knowledge and achievements of their ancestors, it validates their own wisdom and understandings.

By leading with these values, we create an educational experience of true inclusion and collaboration for all students.

Participants of the ROSAmerica Summer Institute will come away with new intelligence, skills and resources to bring this high value learning experience to the classroom. New knowledge gained will be readily usable for the benefit of all Arizona students.
