Build systems and protocols that help teachers and leaders analyze student work and assessment data to inform next steps
Assessment & Intervention Monitoring
Monitor assessment results and intervention effectiveness across campuses, using interim and formative data to identify trends, gaps, and areas of celebration
Support intervention systems for students requiring additional academic support, ensuring tiered supports are well-matched to student needs and progress is regularly monitored
Partner with campus teams (including special education and MTSS/RTI staff) to ensure intervention systems are coherent and effective
Professional Learning
Design professional learning aligned to state standards and academic goals, including network-wide math PD, campus-based training, and summer institute sessions
Stay current on Tennessee state math standards, assessment expectations, and best practices in math instruction, bringing new research and strategies into the network
Additional Responsibilities
Collaborate with school leaders and the academics team to set and track annual math achievement goals
