ICUCARE® for Leaders
EMPOWERING EDUCATORS. TRANSFORMING SYSTEMS.
ELEVATING MARGINALIZED MATH LEARNERS.
WHY THIS COURSE?
Math teachers are hard to find—and even harder to keep. With growing shortages and high turnover, school leaders can’t afford to lose their best math educators. Instead of spending time and resources replacing teachers, invest in helping them thrive.
ICUCARE® for Leaders is a self-paced online course that helps leaders implement equitable math instruction, improve teacher confidence, and create the kind of supportive school culture that retains strong educators.
Grounded in the ICUCARE® Equity Framework, the course provides a research-based roadmap for instructional leadership that centers equity and excellence—without overwhelming your team.
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN IN THIS COURSE?
The E3 Process for Implementing the ICUCARE® Equity Framework:
🔷 Establish a shared vision for equity in math instruction
🔷 Empower teachers through PD that reflects best instructional practices
🔷 Evaluate instruction and student learning through an equity lens
And you’ll gain the skills to:
✅ Build teacher confidence and engagement through coaching and feedback
✅ Prevent burnout by creating a system of support, not surveillance
