From our years on the ground and in the classroom, CT3 saw a better way. A better way to help teachers, superintendents, principals and school leadership in underserved communities succeed on day one. A better way to create culturally relevant environments where life-altering relationships between students and teachers can grow. A better way to develop the strengths and talents of teachers through coaching and professional development strategies that are more than effective, they’re transformative.
CT3 transforms the quality and culture of education for youth, especially those in traditionally disenfranchised communities.
At CT3, we believe…
… every child deserves a world-class education from teachers who are dedicated to student well-being and success.
… teachers who learn about, honor, and leverage the cultural knowledge, experiences, and frames of reference of their students—and their students’ communities—make learning more relevant and effective.
… all students are capable of engaging with challenging curriculum and can meet or exceed rigorous expectations.
… building positive relationships, culturally relevant practices, and empowering mindsets are essential when serving youth.
… students thrive in classrooms where they feel safe, valued, cared for, and have a sense of membership and investment.
… an asset-based school culture where feedback is transparent and in real time supports high levels of achievement for educators and students.
… every teacher can be a positive role model and change agent in students’ lives and has the ability to become a No-Nonsense Nurturer.
… a successful school leader is THE agent of change for a school.
CT3 is redefining the nature of transformative professional development with our unique training model that delivers feedback at the point of instruction, Real Time Teacher Coaching®, and with our research-validated method for classroom management, the No-Nonsense Nurturer® approach.
