CLEE’s research demonstrates that when CLEE-trained leaders implement the Core Leadership Practices (CLP), equity increases in student learning. The more a school implements the CLPs, the greater their increases in learning outcomes and educational equity. Bottom line, shared leadership focused on continuous improvement increases equitable outcomes for students. 

CLEE engages in continuous learning, conducting our own research, and incorporating it into our practice
