We are committed to growing ideas and expanding learning opportunities across districts, proving our motto:
“together, we create more possibilities.”
Like-minded peers across districts engage in exploration, reflection, and learning that excites, inspires, and restores us as professionals.
Teacher leaders from across TEC districts meet outside of the school environment and explore how we define, initiate, and sustain rejuvenation and support for ourselves and others in the teaching profession.
Professional Development
Focus Groups
We want professional learning to be meaningful, relevant, applicable, and inspiring. Focus groups help us understand current professional development needs so TEC can support districts in both concrete and innovative ways. We have conducted focus groups at several of our member districts and will continue the conversation in the 2024-2025 school year. Please contact us if you would like to hold a focus group at your school or district.
Showcase Innovative Learning in Your District
We are thrilled to visit member districts to see how they are implementing their innovative learning ideas.
