ATTENTION Parents or Guardians of 6th and 8th Grade Students. Our school is working with the American Institutes of Research (AIR) and the National Writing Project (NWP) to evaluate an instructional coaching program developed my NWP to improve the writing instruction of middle school English and Language Arts (ELA) teachers- the Coach. Teach. Write. (CTW) program. The CTW will take place between the fall of 2023 and the spring of 2025 with a sample of approximately 60 middle schools in total from multiple states. CTW is funded by the U.S. Department of Education. We are providing you this opportunity to opt your child out of completing a brief survey and the writing assessment.
