TNACTE hosted the CTE Conference, formerly known as CTE Institute, July 13-15. I was happy to help welcome CTE instructors from all over the state. Sessions spanned several clusters, WBL, PBL, many vendor sessions, and TNACTE’s Awards.

Picked up @KCS_EPP coaching visits again for the semester after several snow days caused a delay. These 3 teachers will graduate this Spring: Mr Mandell (CJ at HVA), Ms Pipkin (Health Science) & Mr Hicks (IT, Both at Bearden HS). 🎓🎉
One of our teachers, Ms Webster, leads mentors from KCS & other districts in discussions around mentoring effectively, thus contributing to new teachers’ successes in the classroom & becoming confident as CTE instructors. Teacher support through mentoring is vital for retention!!

EPP Instructor @judy_siebert visited 3 of our candidates @KarnsHighSchool recently: Mr Cox (Construction), Ms Andrews (Health Science) & Mr McMahan (AV Prod). All engaged their students in hands-on activities, which brings these trades to life! 🙂

At today’s @KCS_EPP coaching visit to SDHS & AE: Ms Rhodes going over ❤️rhythms, Mr Henry models proper sanding of a 🚙, Mr Huettel’s students check their store’s inventory 🧁 & Mr Ellis prepares his for making 🥗 dressings. Hard to motivate students sometimes but hands-on helps!
