Home Means Nevada! I am grateful to @NvstateED for creating space today to engage in learning and discussion around @TNTP latest research “Opp. Makers”. Lets continue to ensure Belonging, Consistency and Coherence are a part of plans and actions in our schools and systems in NV
Thoughtful piece making me wonder why we hold on to so many practices and the impact (or lack of impact). How do we disrupt systems to ensure we have a strong pipeline of educational leaders? 🤔🧠

This!!!👇👇👇 HQIM with knowledge building takes years to see student outcomes shift on standardized test. Early studies suggest at least 3 years. Our teachers and students need the gift of time. 📚@AlaskaDEED @TNTP #AKSOR #AKLEARNS #mytntp @natwexler

Instead of having kids practice reading comprehension skills year after year, we should be boosting students' academic knowledge of topics. Let's not limit our kids! @natwexler @AlaskaDEED @TNTP #AKSOR #AKREADS
