Thank you to all the incredible educator leaders in PSD. Another successful and inspiring Summer Institute - over 900 individual staff, 100 classes, and close to 2500 slots filled over 8 days #PSDlearns

More leaders from the other half of our schools taking the learning trip on the Bridge to Structured Literacy @PoudreSchools

PSD Elementary Leaders coming together for the Bridge to Structured Literacy #PSDlearns @PoudreSchools @begileing @teachtechpsd

Is there anything better than the sound of kindergartners excitedly ripping wrapping paper away to reveal a new book? That’s a rhetorical question, btw. @EyestoneCougars got to open their new stories as part of #ReadAcrossAmericaDay after listening to “Creepy Crayon!” 🖍 📚

PSD Educators...Join us next Mon, March 6, for the Spring EdTech Workshop: Students as Creators! Learn about student creations in WeVideo, Adobe, CoSpaces, Gizmos, Minecraft, and 3D printing! Sign up in the PD Catalog. #PSDLearns @bactive2day @K8_Ca9 @rnave33 @john_passantino

Don't buy a program. Don't add more interventions. Don't spend additional money. Don't look at new curriculums. Want to get learners where they need to be? Do bring staff together. Do decide on common beliefs & practices. Do redesign Tier 1 with impact built-in. This works.

Unmotivated learners? Design Tier 1 learning Achievement gaps? Design Tier 1 learning Discipline issues? Design Tier 1 learning Too many interventions? Design Tier 1 learning Low staff morale? Design Tier 1 learning Have any issue? Design Tier 1 learning We know the answer

Spring Classified Training Day: Learning never stops in PSD - our leaders in classified positions learning about conflict management, literacy instructional shifts, equitable practices, creating video, moving to find joy and so much more #PSDlearns @PoudreSchools @Poudre_IS

Another solid engagement session last night for elementary literacy materials. Thanks to all that attended. Hope to see even more tonight at Eyestone Elementary #PSDproud

Trying to move learning only with Tiers 2 & 3 is like putting new tires on a car with no engine. It may move. But it's going to take a lot more hard work & pushing. If we really want movement, Tier 1 must be firing on all cylinders. Fix Tier 1 & floor it.🏎️

Community and staff engagement to inform and gather feedback for our elementary literacy high quality instructional materials adoption - more opportunities to engage next week @PoudreSchools

Snuck away from the office for a quick visit to the Zoo - a musical escape @PoudreSchools thanks the Fort Collins Symphony #PSDproud
