Kass Minor

Kass Minor is an inclusive educator who is deeply involved in local, inquiry-based teacher research and school community development. Alongside partnerships with the Teachers College Inclusive Classrooms Project and the New York City Department of Education, she has worked as a teacher, staff developer, adjunct professor, speaker, and documentarian. Most recently, along with her partner and husband, Cornelius Minor, she has established The Minor Collective, a community-based movement designed to foster sustainable change in schools. Kass facilitates critical conversations that lead to improved, engaged, and more powerful teaching practices, allowing loveful pedagogies to persist in the realm of teaching and learning. She has contributed content to Heinemann Education Blog, inclusiveclassrooms.org, and has been featured in Teaching Tolerance Magazine. She is currently drafting a podcast with her peers entitled Pedagogy of the People, inspired by her NorthStar, the late Myles Horton. Kass has taught in elementary and secondary schools in both ICT and 12:1 service models. Her work is inspired by the communities that surround her and motivated by the idea that every adult can teach, and every student can learn.
