What’s the point of high school? At Summit, it’s more than a diploma. Here, teachers are redefining success by focusing on the long-term well-being of students. We’re thrilled to share more from Summit Tahoma teacher and experienced San Jose educator, Laura Ochoa. Ms. Ochoa’s EdSource op-ed shares how Summit’s mentoring program has empowered her to authentically support her students to become fulfilled adults. Amazing work, Ms. Ochoa! 🎉 #Education #TeacherSuccess #StudentSuccess #BestK12Schools #Teaching #CharterSchools

We’re excited to share the first set of Research-to-Impact Practices developed by the pilot Networked Improvement Community for Students with Disabilities with support from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Over the past three years, we united behind one shared goal: to improve learning experiences, environments, and outcomes for Black and Latinx students with disabilities experiencing poverty. In partnership with leading researchers and content experts, 10 school networks demonstrated that these practices can produce positive outcomes for students furthest from opportunity. The Practices include step-by-step instruction, templates, and case studies that give educators the tools to use these strategies in their schools. Five resources are available now (and the full suite of materials will be published this spring): -Implementing Routine Data Cycles to Rapidly Address Student Needs -Co-Planning for Differentiated Instruction -Guiding Literacy Interventions Through Tiered Assessment -Repeated Reading: Building Oral Reading Fluency in Secondary Readers -Case Study: How Quarterly Professional Development Cycles Helped a Network Maximize Data-Driven Co-Planning for Co-Teachers at Green Dot Public Schools We are grateful for the collaboration and partnership of the NIC. Participating Schools: Summit Public Schools, KIPP Public Schools Northern California, Ednovate Inc, Green Dot Public Schools California, STEM Preparatory Schools, Rocky Mountain Prep, Noble Schools, Collegiate Academies, Mastery Schools, Uncommon Schools. Technical Assistance & Content Experts: Anti-AbleistED, Blue Engine, Catalyst:Ed, Datability Education Consulting (Sivan Tuchman), Mathematica, National Implementation Research Network, RTI International, Spark Education Consulting (Genevieve Thomas), SRI Education, SWIFT Education Center.
