Five Core Propositions
- Teachers are committed to students & their learning.
- Teachers know the subjects they teach and how to teach those subjects to students.
- Teachers are responsible for managing & monitoring student learning.
- Teachers think systematically about their practice and learn from experience.
- Teachers are members of learning communities.
Congratulations to all the new National Board Certified Teachers and the students that they serve. Learn more at www.csd.org.
