What a success in Hyannis Friday! We spent a chunk of time preparing ourselves to support instructional shifts and strengthen learning. We're gearing up mindsets to study, choose, adopt, and implement high quality ELA materials. #nematerialsmatter #WhatinspirESU


High quality materials doesn't ensure success. It takes a DEDICATED team to implement materials effectively, think outside the box, and revisit priorities. In turn, students read complex text, base writing on evidence, and build a plethora of knowledge. Go Tigers! @PaxtonSchools




We had so much fun with the “New to Ogallala” teachers! #greathires #Marzano #WhatInspirESU

Mental Health Awareness Week gives us a chance to highlight why mental health is as important as physical health to our quality of life. Access to mental health services in schools is critical to a child’s ability to thrive academically and in life. Schools offer an ideal context for prevention, intervention, positive development, and regular communication between school and families. Mental health services provided in schools that are not appropriate to the learning environment risk being ineffective or even counterproductive.To meet student needs, collaboration between schools and community mental health providers is a necessity.
