DPLA & NCLA Visit Ron Clark Academy

04/04/2017

DPLA and NCLA Fellows traveled to The Ron Clark Academy in Atlanta, GA on March 23rd, 2017.

Fellows said they learned to…

  • bring magic into the school to create a sense of excitement around learning,
  • set expectations for students and parents before the first day of school,
  • start building a culture for students with an equal balance between structure, discipline, respect, enthusiasm, passion, and creativity,
  • think of providing an experience, not just a curriculum, and
  • set high expectations of ALL students .

One Fellow said “As a school leader, I am fueled to expect teachers to teach with passion” after attending the Ron Clark Academy.
