#ReadAcrossAmerica - a great way to kick off March!

[Dr. Wayne Vickers @AlabasterSupt]

What a month! From academic milestones to school programs to character recognition, February was one for the books! We launched our “Each One, Reach One” National Board-Certified Teacher initiative; celebrated Black History Month across the district, welcomed @UofSouthAlabama guests, and celebrated award-winning school efforts including the @mves_warriors International Coffee Trolley 🏆

Proud to celebrate #ALPublicSchoolsWeek! We all must be bold, united, and unwavering in our support of the promise of #PublicEducation!

[Eric Mackey @egmackey]

Today, @GovernorKayIvey officially proclaimed this week as Public Schools Week in Alabama!

All week long, we’ll celebrate the historic gains made by students and educators across the state. Together, we’re building a stronger Alabama. #WeTeachAlabama #ALPublicSchoolsWeek

[Dr. Wayne Vickers @AlabasterSupt]

We welcomed President Jo Bonner, Dr. Andi Kent, and Ryan Missanelli from @UofSouthAlabama to Thompson High School today 🏫

I appreciate this team always sharing higher-ed knowledge and insights with our students!

[Dr. Wayne Vickers @AlabasterSupt]

So proud of these NBCTs and very encouraged by this new initiative!

[Alabaster City Schools @Alabasterk12]

This week, 17 of our 38 National Board Certified Teachers (NBCTs) gathered to kick off a targeted recruitment effort: "Each One, Reach One!" This plan leverages the influence of our current NBCTs to inspire their peers to pursue certification!

By highlighting available scholarships before the 3/31 deadline, we aim to increase our percentage of NBCTs and, by extension, enhance the quality of instruction across ACS.
