Many of our students deal with complicated learning challenges, from exceptional needs to language and home or community issues. It impacts teaching and learning for every single school in our District. Spotlight 901 is designed to recognize the effective practices and strategies that are helping schools overcome these odds and help their students be highly successful. Our goal is to capitalize on exemplar teaching and leadership methods by giving educators from others schools the chance to see these methods in person and participate in powerful and practical hands-on professional learning. Through Spotlight 901, we will continue to build a sense of collaboration between our leaders and teachers, and I believe it will be truly transformational – for student achievement and total school culture.
