Horizon's Ann Lively a finalist for Rodel recognition

You should congratulate Horizon’s Ann Lively. She’s been selected as a finalist to become a Rodel Exemplary Teacher. Rodel will announce all the finalist next week, but entering Thanksgiving week, we wanted to recognize Ann and thank her for her dedication to our students.

Exemplary Teachers mentor student teachers over an average of four semesters and participate in Rodel-led mentorship seminars that help them develop relationships with their Promising Student Teacher mentees. During each student teacher’s field experience, Exemplary Teachers are asked to model effective teaching practices and share their knowledge of curriculum, instructional strategies, and classroom management skills. Arizona students in Exemplary Teachers’ classrooms achieve at a high level on state-mandated assessments, and studies have shown that this also holds true for the students in Exemplary Teacher mentee (Rodel Graduate) classrooms.
