Innovative Educator Cohort 1 Named

After a long blind read process of applications by ten of our existing pilot Innovative Educators, a new cohort was chosen on October 30. We welcomed 63 additional teachers into our Innovative Educator program. This group of 63 represents 28 teams of teachers from throughout the district. Click on the Innovative Educator icon on the map to see the names of our Innovative Educators.

 They will be sharing a cart of devices for the remainder of the this school year. Team members will have their own cart of devices to begin the 2016-2017 school year. Additionally, they will have additional training opportunities and specialized coaching available to them.
