Berkeley Music Department is in their fourth year of using inquiry to investigate how all students, particularly students of color, can feel engaged and successful in learning to play an instrument. They are exploring how to support a higher percentage of students of color in pursuing musical education beyond the elementary years.
Berkeley Unified Early Childhood is in its first year of partnership with MTS. Teacher leaders from across the district are developing their understanding of adult learning and their skills leading collaborative inquiry, so that they can facilitate meaningful adult learning at their own sites.
