CMS sent a group of teachers and support staff to the Ron Clark Academy (RCA) Experience this week! This professional learning experience is designed to help participants learn skills and teaching strategies that can "ignite a passion for learning, provide meaningful support, encourage academic excellence, foster authentic relationships, and ensure a climate and culture where all students and staff thrive." All of these goals of the RCA Experience are connected deeply to CMS's School Improvement Plan (SIP).
Our CMS attendees, Stephanie Myers, Ellen Brown, Phillip Sapp, Katie Bowers, Üstün Bardak, and Maurice Burney, are on FIRE with excitement and ready to share all that they learned at RCA with our CMS students and staff!
