Amazing learning occurred this past week as teacher leaders participated in our revised Teacher Leadership Academy lead by Nicole Bevilacqua. I wish I could have stayed longer! There is so much to learn as an educator. #KISDinspires. #LifelongLearner

Happy National Librarian Day! The libraries on our campuses are the heart of the school because our dedicated librarians spend countless hours building a space that is welcoming for all ages and fun. We love our librarians! #KISDBest

The Kerrville ISD team ran into an old friend (Justin Boyd from Cambium) while at TASA Midwinter. It was a cold night in Austin but the ice storm gave us a chance to slow down and reconnect!

Teachers are amazing, compassionate, and truly shape the future on a daily basis. If you are interested in becoming a teacher and making a difference, please apply for the Charles Butt Scholarship for Aspiring Teachers!

#KISDBEST This morning, the KISD second grade team leads are planning for next year's students. Teachers are always growing and changing to meet the needs of students. Each year is different from the previous year because our students are always changing! We never stop growing!

#KISDBEST Mrs. Cockrill records directions for each station as students rotate through centers. It is a great way to help clarify expectations when teachers cannot guide all groups simultaneously. The learning targets posted at each station helps students own their learning. ❤️

#KISDBEST I stepped in Ms. Alvarez's class this afternoon and witnessed an amazing blended learning activity where students were exploring, collaborating, and using technology to problem solve. BT Wilson would be proud of the learning happening at school! #BTWBEST

#KISDBEST #BTWBEST I popped in BTW science PLC and learned so much! They shared how music and humor keeps virtual students actively learning in synchronous sessions and invited me to login as a student to use https://t.co/qwzw9f5Hiw - a great interactive tool. Learning Rocks!
