NORTH BILLERICA, Mass., January 13, 2021 / PRNewswire / – Curriculum Associates named Ann McCall Salway Abner Creek Academy in Duncan, SC and Ashley Powell Schneider at Pritchardville Elementary on Bluffton, SC to its 2021 Extraordinary Educators class, an annual program that celebrates and connects exemplary teachers from across the country. Salway and Schneider are among 44 teachers from 26 states and Washington DC chosen for this tribute that recognizes educators who exhibit the use of best i-Ready and / or ready, illustrate growth and achievements through formal assessments, demonstrate innovation and engagement practices for students, are evangelists of high standards and student performance, and have been teaching for at least two years.
“Needless to say, this was an unprecedented school year, which challenged educators, students and families,” he said. Rob Waldron, CEO of Curriculum Associates. “However, this group of Extraordinary Educators – like so many other educators across the country – is up to the occasion. We are proud to recognize Ann and Ashley for their hard work, dedication and innovative best practices that continue to positively impact students who answer. “
This year’s Extraordinary Educators, who were chosen from hundreds of nominations, will have access to a network of colleagues across the country to collaborate, connect and learn throughout the year, as well as receive unique professional development opportunities from Curriculum Associates. They will also be invited to participate and present at the Extraordinary Educators Leadership Summit, as well as at other professional learning events throughout the year.
“I am very honored to represent my school and district while informing my colleagues and colleagues about how I use i-Ready data to guide my instruction, “said Salway.” I look forward to learning new strategies from other Extraordinary Educators on how to implement data in other ways than usual. I am excited about the experiences I will be able to participate in and I can’t wait to see what this year has in store for me! “
“I am very excited and honored to be named an Extraordinary Educator,” said Schneider. “When I grew up, everything I ever wanted to be was a teacher. I always believed in education and I feel that this is the career that I should follow. As an educator, collaboration is one of the best ways to make an impact in a classroom. When working with this program, I will have the opportunity to learn and discuss successful strategies and methods with others who truly believe in education. I am excited to discuss, learn and share strategies and ideas to help students in my classroom and school. “
Today, Curriculum Associates programs are used in three quarters of the state’s school districts.
