School Climate Administrator Checklist

School climate is set from the top. Use this checklist to reflect on the systems and modeling that make access and belonging schoolwide. It asks whether clear ASL and English norms are established across every setting, whether belonging is built into daily routines rather than one-off events, whether Deaf professionals are involved meaningfully in decisions, and whether leaders model inclusive practice while addressing inconsistency promptly. Use it to reflect on your leadership and drive steady, continuous improvement.
