Teachers Know Best: Teachers’ Views on Professional Development

What happens when teachers trade isolation for collaboration? Teachers in Colorado and Kentucky wanted to find out so they created the Common Assignment Study (CAS) to show the positive impact of teachers working across district and state lines to better serve students.

Collaboration is key to creating strong learning communities within and between schools. The Network for College Success (NCS), which brings together school leadership teams from 15 high schools in Chicago to look at each others’ data and share strategies, is a great example of this collaboration.

I’m honored to announce the official launch of our K-12 Progress in Action campaign. In the coming months, we’ll highlight and amplify the progress our partners and grantees are making to ensure all students have the opportunity to succeed.
