NCCAT is the North Carolina Center for the Advancement of Teaching, and there are two locations in our state: Culowhee in the mountains and Ocracoke at the beach. To attend PD there, you must apply and be selected. This amazing opportunity was created by a former NC Teacher of the Year and is funded by the state and generous grants. In my session, I will bring NCCAT home to you! I was fortunate to be selected as a state literacy leader, and I am so excited to share what I have learned about adolescent instructional strategies with you. Educators 4th grade through 12th grade would benefit most from the content.
