A University/School District Partnership to Close the Information, Opportunity, and Attainment Gaps for Students in Urban Schools
Stone, Carolyn; Eggleston, Lauren
Professional School Counseling, v23 n1 part 2 2020
This article outlines how to replicate strategies employed during a two-decade partnership between the University of North Florida's (UNF) school counselor preparation program and Duval County Public Schools, a large, urban, southern school district. The partnership created a culture of collaboration built on a mutual social justice philosophy for the purpose of closing attainment gaps. Participation in the partnership has become mandatory for UNF school counseling candidates in their preparation to be systemic change agents who ferret out and eliminate opportunity gaps and information gaps to benefit K-12 students.
