Professional Learning Edition

Welcome Back! As the New York City Public Schools community returns from spring break, we hope you were able to enjoy some time outdoors, practice self-care, and get re-energized for the last two months of the school year. There are still plenty of opportunities to learn something new and earn CTLE this year—including our full day of live webinars on June 6. Read on for details!  


Transform Your Classroom this Spring Using Culturally Responsive Teaching (CRT) 

Since the summer of 2022, more than 30,000 migrant children have enrolled in New York City public schools, and 40% of our public school students speak a language other than English at home. Culturally responsive teaching views this diversity as a source of knowledge, and connect students’ identities to their education. Join nationally recognized facilitators and explore how CRT can positively impact your instruction and student academic outcomes. Click the links below to read more—space is limited, so register today!
