CTAPP had the opportunity to participate in not one but TWO Community of Practices in Houston and Forth Worth. It was great to collaborate with other stakeholders in education and we’re excited to implement what we learned! Thanks to @US_PREP and @ed1stconsulting for hosting!
Huge shout out to @MonicaSatue for facilitating an excellent small group around how to best support Mentor Teachers! 🙏🏻
As always, @US_PREP did an amazing job leading the Houston Community of Practice towards actionable strategies that will impact teacher preparation.
Engaging conversation about what we can do as a community of educators to better support new teachers and their mentors. @MonicaSatue led this process with skill! @ic4edprep @US_PREP @CTAPPTX
If you’re not familiar with the work of @masonmessages, I highly encourage you to check out her documentary: From The Block.
Additionally, give her an upvote on the @SXSWEDU Panel Picker for her research on culturally sustaining teaching.

To all of the teachers who return to the classroom today…THANK YOU! Thank you serving students and families everyday. The end of summertime is bittersweet… sad it’s over mixed with the excitement of a new year ahead! May it be the best year yet… 🌟 – at League City, TX
CTAPP had the pleasure of visiting Waco to see our partners at @McLennanCC earlier this week! It’s wonderful to see their teacher candidates in action during summer coursework. We also found time to check out local eateries! @rebecca_a_mott @DavidSambrano3

To keep the learning going this year, some school and district leaders have had to fill in for teachers in the classroom. This experience has brought a new sense of urgency (and responsibility) to better preparing and supporting substitute teachers.
