Op-Ed worth reading from @NashvillePropel's Sonya Thomas about last week's denial of three proposed public charter schools, including @MyRockAcademy, the Forge School, & @RocketshipEd. Each offers families a needed high-quality public education option. tnfirefly.com/news/metro-nas…

Disappointing news for @RocketshipEd, The Forge School, & @MyRockAcademy. All children deserve to attend the school that's best for them and each of these proposed public charter schools offers to provide families a needed, high-quality education option. tnfirefly.com/todays-top-sto…

From the classrooms to the staff culture, @RocketshipEd is living proof that strong academic outcomes and deep character development go hand in hand. As part of our continued focus on character development at CSGF, we conducted a school visit, called a “Culture Round,” with Rocketship last week. We are grateful to the Rocketship team for opening their doors and modeling what’s possible when character and culture lead the way.

In 4th grade, we learned to focus on details by becoming in inventors! We learned that inventors have to think about and write explicit details for success! We also learned that effective, respectful collaboration is needed in a group of inventors! 💜🚀@Amplify @RocketshipEd

There is nothing more rewarding as a teacher than to intentionally and fully prepare for instruction on the front end and watch students succeed in return. My heart is over flowing!
