During the early days of summer, Pikesville High School (PHS) teachers engaged in a week of professional learning to transform their instruction using formative assessment, small group instruction, and meaningful technology integration. Following this experience, teachers were eager to learn more about the challenges that both the students and they would face as they begin the 2016-2017 school year as one of the first BCPS Lighthouse high schools.
In an effort to answer some circulating questions, I sought out the help of others who embarked on this journey before us in elementary and middle Lighthouse schools. Through this use of VoiceThread, the views of many were captured to not only acknowledge challenges that may arise, but also help clearly articulate the true meaning of S.T.A.T. Being new to PHS, this tool allowed me to share ways that I could best support teachers in the journey of instructional transformation, while remaining their biggest cheerleader!
