Teacher Leadership Program
What is Teacher Leadership at Linn-Mar?
Teacher Leadership is an opportunity for teachers to help their colleagues by sharing instructional resources, areas of expertise, and effective teaching strategies in a variety of roles in and out of the classroom setting. If we hire talented individuals with strong collaborative skills, then work to develop an understanding of our instructional framework through High Reliability Schools, our teacher leaders will coach staff members to increase and improve instruction to meet our district and building goals.
Linn-Mar Teacher Leaders work with adult learners, communicate with the staff and Linn-Mar Teacher Leadership Goals
