My Project
A team of educators from four alternative schools in Baltimore City are coming together to engage in deep professional development about rigor in the classroom. I have been called to lead the professional development series at the end of the school year, and need materials to appropriately prepare for the change that we desire to see in the classroom. These resources will ensure that I have the adequate knowledge and material to improve my professional praxis while preparing to engage in academic discourse with likeminded educational professionals. The hope is that this professional development preparation will provide schools with the necessary materials to develop a timeline of implementation to shift learning and social outcomes of all of our students.
