| Abstract: | Collaboration is an integral aspect of practitioner inquiry, and ample research has shown that inquiry communities encourage effective collaboration among teachers. However, little research highlights how teacher inquirers can foster inquiry-centered collaboration with others. This paper shares how one teacher-inquirer invited students, colleagues, and school leadership to inquire with her about inequitable enrollments in her high school's AP courses. Through her ongoing and iterative collaboration with multiple stakeholders, the teacher-inquirer built a school-wide network of co-inquirers to improve accessibility and support in AP courses to ensure all students can succeed.
