  • Learn More and Teach On!

    Funded Jul 1, 2018

    I can't begin to thank you enough for the amazing experience I had in Charlotte, North Carolina at the Get Your Teach On conference. I had the opportunity to work with some of the best teachers in the country. Hope King, Wade King, and other extraordinary presenters showed me the power of engagement, motivation, and rigor in the classroom.

    "Get Your Teach On" focused on ways to engage all students and make learning fun and meaningful. Not only was it fun and meaningful, but demonstrated how when holding the bar high and engaging students you start to see all students become successful. They are no longer memorizing content but starting to make connections and become life long learners. During the conference we participated in a variety of learning opportunities, such as STEAM Mania, Math Madness, Being a Technology Superhero, and much more. The conference also focused on providing us with creative and easy to implement ideas centered around rigor and student engagement.

    This is one of the best conferences I have ever attended. It has inspired and motivated me to do even more in my classroom. As a teacher, we need to be life long learners as well. We need to have students who want to come to school and learn. I look forward to using the amazing strategies and ideas that I came away with from Get Your Teach On!”

    With gratitude,

    Mrs. Shelton

  • Teaching With Passion and Power!

    Funded Nov 13, 2017

    Thank you so much for providing me the opportunity to attend the Ron Clark Academy. It was absolutely amazing. I love that I was able to come back to my classroom with new ideas and I was ready to set the stage to engage! Engagement is where true learning occurs. I am already thinking about new and engaging activities for the upcoming 2018-2019 school year. I love my job and I am so appreciative that I had the chance to attend the Ron Clark Academy so that I can continue to grow as an educator.”

I look forward to attending the Get Your Teach On conference in Atlanta, GA so that I come back more empowered, motivated and ready to teach engaging lessons. I had the opportunity to attend a GYTO conference a few years ago. It was amazing. I brought back so many strategies that paired both engagement and rigor into my classroom each day. I plan on getting many more ideas about how to further engage students and add passion and rigor into my instructional day while focusing on math and STEAM. When students are engaged and wanting more, this is where true learning occurs. I want my students to look forward to walking in my room each morning, ready to learn and have fun. I feel that by attending this conference, this will directly impact the success of my students. I am ready to GET MY TEACH ON!
