🔧 Exciting news for 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐄𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 (𝐂𝐓𝐄) 𝐢𝐧 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐨! 🚜 Several Colorado school districts are expanding their CTE programs for the 2024-2025 academic year, recognizing the vital role these programs play in preparing students for success after high school. These expansions reflect a growing understanding that college isn't the only path to success. CTE programs offer students valuable skills and career opportunities without the burden of student debt. At eDynamic Learning, we're proud to support CTE initiatives like these. Our comprehensive digital curriculum covers over 43 CTE pathways, leading to nearly 100 industry-recognized certifications. We provide: 📚 Robust, up-to-date content 🏆 Consistent, best-in-class instructional framework 🛠️ Tools and support for teachers and students 🔄 Flexible instructional services for specialized courses CTE programs significantly improve graduation rates and prepare students for life after high school.

SEEING IS BELIEVING IN #cte! Are we perpetuating old and outdated perceptions of career and technical education or are we viewing CTE through a modern lens? Perhaps we should encourage more students to pursue their passion in a CTE setting and realize it can be an AND option to college not an OR option to college. Think about how long it takes to get an appointment for your car or how far out you have to schedule your HVAC service and realize that we have not fallen off the skilled employee cliff yet. Add to that the increased outcomes we see in students in career and technical education and CTE is quickly becoming a leader in the pedagogical space as well. EVERY SINGLE EDUCATOR that I know that made the shift from traditional K12 to CTE has said the same thing within months of arriving: I'm never going back and I feel like I'm making a real difference here. It seems attributable to so many factors including: student agency in their learning, content taught by experienced content area experts, connections to business and industry, attainment of industry recognized credentials before graduation, and OPTIONS after graduating: work, college, additional training, or a combination of any of these. School should open doors for students and those with a CTE education have a competitive advantage in the workplace and several doors open for them after high school. Isn't this the goal?! It is time to #rethink how we talk about CTE and realize how it can #elevate an education rather than diminish one. #careerteched #cteworks #highschool #buckscounty #aMBITion #MBIT Middle Bucks Institute of Technology

Is your MTSS getting results? MTSS is a critical tool in our quest to lay a strong foundation for literacy in our classrooms, but it's important to ask ourselves if we've remained true to MTSS, especially regarding Tier 1 instruction. Tier 1 should cause approximately 80% of students to reach grade-level reading goals, involving a curriculum that's comprehensive and differentiated for diverse learning needs. But what if strict adherence to a program overrides our ability to be responsive to student needs? Effective Tier 1 instruction should adapt to the varied abilities and individualities within our classrooms, including the needs of students with disabilities. Traditional whole-group instruction isn't always sufficient; small groups or targeted individual instruction can enhance engagement and understanding. The true spirit of MTSS involves its dynamic application, that calls us to be evaluative and responsive, using data to adapt our methods. For example, if more than 20% of students are below benchmark, this signals a need to rethink our Tier 1 strategies. As leaders, our role isn't just about implementing programs but ensuring that teachers can innovatively use tools within the MTSS framework to achieve effective teaching and learning outcomes. Let’s talk about it in the comments. Are we too rigid in our MTSS implementation? How can we better adapt our Tier 1 instruction to truly meet the needs of all students? #MTSS #EducationLeadership #Literacy #InclusiveEducation
