Renae N. Calhoun of Polk Central Elementary recently attended a seminar held at the North Carolina Center for the Advancement of Teaching (NCCAT), a recognized national leader in professional development programming for the state’s teachers.
Increasing teacher effectiveness is fundamental to improving public education.
NCCAT educates teachers and provides them with new knowledge, skills, teaching methods, best practices and information to take back to their classrooms. NCCAT conducts interdisciplinary, content-specific seminars for pre-K through 12th-grade teachers in the environmental and biological sciences, technology, humanities, arts, communication and health.
