Celebrating the work of our incredible corps member, Maria Gomez (Miami-Dade '22)! 🌟
Ms. Gomez's dedication to celebrating student growth, not just achievement, sets a powerful example for educators everywhere. In her classroom, it's not just about hitting benchmarks; it's about acknowledging every step of progress. Her visual culture, highlighting the growth students make alongside proficiency, sends a vital message, especially as testing season approaches.
But that's not all. Ms. Gomez's instruction is a masterclass in joy, rigor, and engagement. And the results speak for themselves. Starting with 71% of students scoring at level 1 on FAST at the beginning of the year, Ms. Gomez has reduced that to under 60% by the middle of the year. Not to mention, she's more than doubled the number of students scoring at proficiency.
Ms. Gomez, your dedication and passion are truly making a difference in the lives of your 5th-grade mathematicians. Keep up the amazing work! We can't wait to see how your students continue to grow and thrive throughout the rest of the year.
