My thoughts on Kim Cofin's quote

Issac Newton said: " If I have seen further than others, it is by standing upon the shoulders of giants." I believe collaboration is key to education and learning. I am lucky to work with highly qualified and creative people in the math department at Silver Lake. As a team we were able to bring our MCAS scores up 9.5 points from the previous year. This class is the perfect example of collaboration at work. Several of my building colleaques are in the class and we connect regularly, give support and encouragement when needed. I am privileged to be able to stand on the shoulders of many giants in my department. ~(thank you Joe, Pam, Steve and Laurie)

  4. What a nice tribute to colleagues. We should all be so fortunate to boast of such team work. What is the magic bullet?
