@joshuareese84 “Leaders who succeed in building up their people should start to see staff outgrowing their roles, and, ethically, must nudge them forward.” This hit home @joshuareese84

“Systematically building knowledge is also vital, so students can understand and apply what they learn from the words on the page and can write in a way that shares their knowledge with others.” https://t.co/fOib1XUfF2

The department is proud to recognize #BestforAllDistrict @MonroeCountySc1 for their leadership in putting a clear focus on academic achievement to help students succeed. Check out their spotlight from #BestforAllDay!

@JenMaloneTN I looked really surprised by whatever that child was telling me!

[Penny Schwinn @SchwinnTeach]

No surprise: materials & professional support are critical. Using high quality instructional materials aligned to classroom instruction is a game-changer for consistency and rigor. For new tutors, job-embedded support gives real time feedback and immediate benefits. #TNALLCorps
