"My professional growth in science instruction has opened the door for me to take on a hybrid role as a science leader within my building. Through deepening my understanding of science standards and best practices in hands-on, inquiry-based instruction, I’ve been able to transform the way I engage students in science learning. As a result, I’ve seen a clear shift in student outcomes—students are not only more excited about science, but they’re also demonstrating stronger critical thinking skills and a deeper understanding of scientific concepts. This growth has positioned me to support other teachers in our building by modeling effective practices and collaborating to build a stronger, more cohesive science program schoolwide."

"The CID Science coordinator has been so amazing! She has come to our site to offer professional development multiple times this year. She has also conducted science walks and coaching sessions. Our team is more comfortable with the content and we have seen an increase in the use of Amplify this year. Additionally, she is a strong support for the administrative team. She contacts us frequently with information to support the implementation of Amplify. In fact, she knows the vision for science implementation that we have at Dailey and works to support our specific goals. I appreciate her partnership. Our school is better for her service."

"Mr. Everson & Mrs. Dehner-Wlliams, I just want to take this opportunity to thank you both for the incredible mathematics support you continue to provide to our school since I became the principal at Hayden. Your contributions through professional development sessions before and after school, support and conversations during PLC's, classroom walk-throughs with admin and teachers, reviewing instructional videos with grade-level teams, and helping us set meaningful goals aligned with our School Improvement Plan/SSPP have made a significant impact. At times, we've had to engage in challenging conversations around math instruction, which required deep reflection on where we were and the steps needed to move forward. With your guidance, we were able to grow and make real progress. Thank you for helping us get there."

"Good afternoon…I just wanted to drop this big THANK YOU to you and your department [division] for spearheading these curriculum trainings for new teachers. My SSC and I were just chatting about how when we came into CCSD, it was basically a "here's the stuff and figure it out" kind of situation. So, having these sessions are going to give the newbies a good foundation to start the school year. Again, THANK YOU!"
