January 13, 2025 No Comments

When is the right time to find your next rockstar teacher? Always!!! Recruitment of solid educators is a constant in the work of a school leader.

Introduction The mainstream media has overlooked Florida’s educational achievement—a mistake in the face of any educational bright spot with a unique policy through line, as is the case in Florida. In the early 2000s, Florida was the state to watch in United States education, thanks largely to then–Gov. Jeb Bush’s outcomes-driven reform initiatives. This period is remembered for significant accountability overhauls, a meaningful prioritization of literacy, and the launching of school choice as we know it today.
