      To: SJE <socjus-teach at educ.umass.edu>

Please forward widely! 
  We need your help to promote this opportunity.
   
  The Social Justice Education (SJE) concentration in the School of Education 
at the University of Massachusetts Amherst presents:
   
SJE Summer Institute
Enhancing Student Achievement through Social Justice Education
July 13-16, 2006
UMass Amherst 
   
  For more information, go to:  www.umass.edu/sjei  
 
You can find registration information on the website and on the attached flyer.
   
  Please help us get the word out to K-12 teachers, counselors, principals, 
superintendents, school Board/Committee members, teacher educators, staff 
development professionals, graduate students—anyone and everyone you can think 
of who might find this conference informative and helpful toward improving 
student achievement and toward creating a social justice education curriculum 
in their classrooms and an equitable climate in their schools.
   
  The Institute presents a social justice education model for critically 
examining curricular, programmatic, organizational and professional development 
aspects of K-12 schooling. Participants will be introduced to SJE practices to 
enhance student academic achievement, and will be encouraged to become social 
justice change agents for their schools and school systems.  
   
  Participants will develop a classroom/curriculum/school climate change plan 
while at the Institute, and Institute Faculty will find ways to help monitor 
participant success implementing the change plan.
   
  Please direct your questions and expressions of interest to Keri DeJong, at

  Thank you for your help in getting the word out on this upcoming project!
