At the SJSU Lurie College of Education, we prepare transformative educators, counselors, therapists, school and community leaders. We do this through an emancipatory approach across our teaching, scholarship, and service with a focus on four priority areas: Community engaged: We strive to become the hub for community-centered, educational transformation in the region. Culturally sustaining: We value and sustain the linguistic and cultural practices of the communities we serve and make that the foundation of our work. Holistic: We foster a caring and supportive community of belonging, connectedness, and appreciation. Interdisciplinary: We learn together across and beyond the college, transforming schooling and benefitting our communities.
