Utilizing a Culturally Responsive Assessment of Indigenous Schooling (CRAIS) tool to increase culturally responsive schooling practices

Abstract

This leadership guide is crucial for leaders in Indigenous communities as it provides essential support in using the Culturally Responsive Assessment of Indigenous Schooling (CRAIS) tool to evaluate cultural responsiveness in schools. By assessing practices from the classroom to the entire school, the CRAIS tool helps guide and identify areas of strength and weakness of cultural responsiveness in schools, enabling schools and districts to enhance their culturally responsive practices effectively.
