Teachers aren’t just teaching. ✍️ They’re writing. ☝️ They’re advocating. 💪 They’re shaping the conversation. From AI to assessment, TX educators are helping drive what comes next. 🚀 #TeacherAppreciationWeek #TeachPlusTexas

Our @teachplusTX Policy Fellows –– current classroom teachers –– are conducting statewide research to understand what it takes to ensure every student earns a postsecondary credential or degree within six years of graduation. On Saturday, we'll take a look at what that means 👇🏽

I had the absolute BEST time presenting alongside Teacher Commission Chair, Krystal Thomas, at the 41st Annual @TABSE_Texas State Convention. So inspired by the impact these educators will make at both the elementary and secondary levels. By educating educators, two Master Teachers from @TempleISD are evolving into Master Leaders.

📚 English class builds more than literacy. Teach Plus Texas Fellows Klara Aizupitis & Katrina Sacurom were featured in @EducationWeek sharing how ELA instruction helps students develop empathy, self-awareness & perspective-taking. Teacher expertise matters. (1/2) #TeacherVoice
