Hot take:
Reduced Class Size: Effect Size=0.17 or less than 1/2 year's learning growth

Why so low?
Bc we'll tend to teach 16 like we taught 32.

We should talk about changing the quality of our teaching in the room as much as we talk about changing the quantity of the learners.

I love Read Across America Week! It reminds us how important reading for enjoyment is and creating curiosity! Thank you former teacher Mrs. Petty for your time! #WeareCUCPS #ccesdukes

These fourth grade lumberjacks use all their teacher tools to chop down any challenges and obstacles that stand in our way together! #ccesdukes @CuCPS

When your dragging, can’t keep up, and aren’t at your best … then you get special messages like these! You may not always see the differences you make or hear about them - but you sure do cherish those moments the impact is visible- it matters ❤️!

During Virginia Farm to School Week, Virginians will make some noise for local farm to school programs on Thursday, October 5, by celebrating the seventh annual “Crunch Heard ‘Round the Commonwealth.” We heard it today!!! #VACrunch and #VAFarmtoSchool. #WeareCUCPS #CCESDukes

Sometimes you have to be creative when your power up group overlaps with subbing for a teacher 🤷‍♀️ third grade and first grade practicing their phonics skills and fluency #thinkingoutsidethebox @ccesdukes @iamcucps

I love those days when you get to run into one of your first Dukes! Hard to believe my first group of second graders at Cumberland is graduating this year! #wearecucps #ccesdukes

I love being a teacher because it goes far beyond a score or grade on a piece of paper. I’m building a relationship with a love of learning. I’m shaping behaviors of success. I’m helping them see small steps to move mountains. It starts here #ccesdukes #iamcucps
