@RocketshipEd wants to expand its high performing personalized learning model into Rutherford County.
We're looking forward to district leaders approving it tonight to provide families with another high-quality public education option. https://t.co/LGpzCzEwZn

[Tennesseans for Student Success @tnstudent]

Op-Ed worth reading from @NashvillePropel's Sonya Thomas about last week's denial of three proposed public charter schools, including @MyRockAcademy, the Forge School, & @RocketshipEd. Each offers families a needed high-quality public education option. https://t.co/sBS9PGOeJU

[Tennesseans for Student Success @tnstudent]

Disappointing news for @RocketshipEd, The Forge School, & @MyRockAcademy. All children deserve to attend the school that's best for them and each of these proposed public charter schools offers to provide families a needed, high-quality education option. https://t.co/gZqxvANfUq

[Tennesseans for Student Success @tnstudent]

Children deserve the right to attend the school that's best for them and tonight @rucoschools has an opportunity to provide families with another high-quality option. @RocketshipEd is applying to expand its successful Nashville model to Rutherford County. https://t.co/uQnMw9BleM

[Charter School Growth Fund @CharterGrowth]

From the classrooms to the staff culture, @RocketshipEd is living proof that strong academic outcomes and deep character development go hand in hand. As part of our continued focus on character development at CSGF, we conducted a school visit, called a “Culture Round,” with Rocketship last week. We are grateful to the Rocketship team for opening their doors and modeling what’s possible when character and culture lead the way.

[Amanda Dawn Inay - 4th & 5th Grade Humanities @AmandaInay]

In 4th grade, we learned to focus on details by becoming in inventors! We learned that inventors have to think about and write explicit details for success! We also learned that effective, respectful collaboration is needed in a group of inventors! 💜🚀@Amplify @RocketshipEd

[Amanda Dawn Inay - 4th & 5th Grade Humanities @AmandaInay]

There is nothing more rewarding as a teacher than to intentionally and fully prepare for instruction on the front end and watch students succeed in return. My heart is over flowing!
