The Fund for Transforming Education in Kentucky (The Fund) inspires and scales innovation and excellence in Kentucky’s public schools, resulting in a better future for all of our children.

Let’s see what some of our partners are up to…


 
Center for Teaching Quality (CTQ)-they are working on a webinar series for any and all teachers that would like to get involved. Teachers will have the opportunity to connect with others in sharing their knowledge and expertise as well as receive resources and learn ways to elevate both themselves and their students around the Common Core State Standards. This online “collaboratory” is completely led by teachers, through posts and responses.

You can access this virtual community through the CTQ website.



Hope Street Group-they have developed several trainings focused around the new Professional Growth and Effectiveness System, starting with PGES 101. The State Teacher Fellows will be conducting this training within their Professional Learning Networks across the state. To learn more about Fellows in your area, click here.

Connect with the Teacher Fellow and join their Professional Learning Network (PLN).  Their PLN invites include their local colleagues, building association rep, fellow district teachers, members of their respective subject area organizations, etc.

We look forward to connecting with you and we value you as a teacher leader!!
