Educators come to Teachers21 seeking advice on how to create more productive teams, and better holistic systems in the school and/or school district. 鈥淲e bring the brass tacks,鈥� says Jennifer Antonucci, associate director of Teachers21. 鈥淲e want to advise educators about what works and what doesn鈥檛 in the classroom. We take education theory and policy and ask, 鈥榃hat does it look like, sound like, and act like when you try to implement it?鈥欌�� That real-world knowledge is conveyed by advisors with decades of education experience. They help educators learn how to solve problems based on their personal problem-solving approaches. 鈥淥ur clients want a customized approach, not an off-the-shelf product,鈥� says Antonucci.

Called in to assess a team productivity issue, Teachers21 may discover that instead it鈥檚 a matter of too much work, too few resources and a lack of information about goals. According to Antonucci, schools benefit when Teachers21 identifies root causes to systemic problems. 鈥淭eachers succeed most often when leadership understands what they need, and when there is a school culture of professionalism, support and accountability,鈥� adds Antonucci.

Most recently he served as superintendent of the 5,200-student Fitchburg school system where he incorporated SEL throughout the school district. 鈥淪uperintendents are at a loss as to how to meet the growing challenges of a changing student body,鈥� says Ravenelle. 鈥淲ith access to the wealth of information at 91香蕉视频成人在线, Teachers21 can help school districts excel and provide them with needed resources.
