Louisiana Department of Education

Collaborating with the Louisiana Department of Education
 

Since 2017, the Charles A. Dana Center has been working with the Louisiana Department of Education to equip Louisiana mentor teachers and mathematics content leaders with the knowledge and materials they need to effectively support new and current teachers.

The goal of this collaboration is to develop leaders within the system to ensure that Louisiana educators receive ongoing deep professional learning connected to the grade level, content area, and primary curriculum they teach.

Toward this goal, the Dana Center provides professional learning and training for mentor teachers and mathematics content leaders. These mentor teachers and content leaders then able to turn around and deliver Dana Center–authored professional development sessions throughout their schools and parishes.
