For decades, public education has implemented reforms specifically targeting students of color, but the sector continues to face challenges in improving academic outcomes. However, HBCUs are often overlooked as sources of effective methods for producing high-achieving black students, although their existence is based on this very premise. HBCUs have been engines for ingenuity, academic excellence and social justice for decades, and the strategies and practices they implement can inform educational practices and systems. As such, Imparting Wisdom uplifts research-based HBCU best practices, practical recommendations and insights from HBCU leaders, with the goal of promoting mutually beneficial alliances between the K-12 and higher education communities.  \nThe outlined lessons in the report rest on the following best practices that HBCUs employ: (1) cultivating nurturing support systems,(2) leveraging African American culture and identity and (3) setting high expectations. Each best practice also details corresponding lessons for the K-12 space.  \n“HBCUs have been engines for ingenuity,  \nacademic excellence and social justice for decades, and the strategies and practices they implement  \ncan inform educational practices and systems.”  \n4 IMPARTING WISDOM: HBCU LESSONS FOR K-12 EDUCATION  \nHBCU Best Practices K-12 Lessons  \nBest Practice 1: Cultivating Nurturing Support Systems describes how HBCUs promote a high level of student and faculty interaction, employ diverse faculty and implement strategies like intrusive advising to build caring relationships among students.  \n• Districts and schools should invest in quality advising and support systems to prohibit students from falling through the cracks.  \n• K-12 school districts and charter management organizations (CMOs)—especially those with high proportions of minority students—should make intentional efforts to recrui","cbCaietO6LCobBrc","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaietO6LCobBrc","pdf",4223649,24,"English","# Executive Summary\n# Introduction\n# HBCU Best Practices\n## Cultivating Nurturing Support Systems\n## Leveraging African American Culture and Identity\n## Setting High Expectations\n# Conclusion and Call to Action\n# Endnotes","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of “Imparting Wisdom: HBCU Lessons for K-12 Education”?\",\"answer\":\"It presents HBCU best practices and practical recommendations on how HBCU strategies can be translated into K-12 schools to support improved academic outcomes and beneficial alliances between K-12 and higher education communities.\"},{\"question\":\"What three best practices does the report emphasize for HBCUs?\",\"answer\":\"The report centers on cultivating nurturing support systems, leveraging African American culture and identity, and setting high expectations.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the report connect HBCU best practices to actions in K-12 schools?\",\"answer\":\"For each best practice, it outlines corresponding lessons for K-12 contexts, such as investing in high-quality advising and culturally relevant pedagogy, creating college-going culture, and using structures like affinity groups to affirm students’ race and culture.\"}]","IMPARTING WISDOM - HBCU LESSONS FOR K-12 EDUCATION | PDF",1792051342]
