Pilot Success: Professional Development Alignment Patti Harrington 4th Grade Teacher, Greenlee Elementary • Enrolled in class “Culturally Responsive Classroom Management” in support of her personal area of focus (Effective Classroom Management) • “My Peer Observer quickly realized that I was eager to improve and suggested that I go to Moodle and watch videos on different indicators in the framework. This gave me a way to immediately start improving my practice.”
