To provide all students with excellent teaching and help them close gaps and leap ahead, our schools are using Opportunity Culture® models for their teachers and students. These models enable schools to reach every student with excellent teachers and their teams—consistently—while paying teachers more for their extra responsibilities, and helping all educators improve on the job and work collaboratively. All pay supplements are funded through reallocations of existing budgets—no temporary grants.

The models create new roles for teachers—through a foundation of the Multi-Classroom Leader® role—and support staff, and they carefully integrate technology to save teachers time and help individualize instruction, often through small groups. The most effective teachers are responsible not only for helping more students, but also for helping their peers achieve teaching excellence, too. Research has shown large student learning gains for students on Multi-Classroom Leader® teams.

In each school, a team of teachers and administrators adopts new roles to reach more students with teachers who have produced high-growth student learning. The team decides what reallocations to make to fund higher-paid roles, how to design school schedules for collaboration at school, how fast to reach all students with excellent teaching, and other design elements.

Schools using these models have attracted large numbers of outstanding educators committed to creating a culture of excellence for students, teachers, and staff. Learn more at OpportunityCulture.org.

Public Impact® supports and trains districts, schools, and partners who share our commitment to reaching every student with excellent teaching, every year, and to providing outstanding career opportunities to teachers.

What barriers keep teachers and students from experiencing great support and strong learning outcomes? Below are 2 brief videos describing Opportunity Culture®. The Part 1 video highlights some of the barriers that Opportunity Culture® school models can remove. The Part 2 video details how Opportunity Culture® implementation provides on-the-job, consistent support for all teachers to reach many more students with excellence, learn more, and earn more—by having great teachers lead teams or reach more students directly, with more school-day collaboration and planning time.

Our school district is part of a growing, national movement using these models to extend the reach of excellent teachers, principals, and their teams to more students, for more pay, within regular school budgets. That means great opportunities to have a fulfilling career path full of support.

Our goal through Opportunity Culture® is to "Lead, Inspire, Transform: In Person"

• Increase student access to our most highly effective teachers, improving student learning outcomes.

• Increase teacher access to high impact support, improving instructional effectiveness for all.

• Increase opportunities for highly effective teachers to grow in their profession and earn more money without leaving the classroom.
