A R E Y O U A N accomplished or experienced educator who wants to take a leadership role in your profession, especially as it relates to the Common Core State Standards for English language arts and mathematics and the Next Generation Science Standards? Then apply for the Instructional Leadership Corps. CTA, the Stanford Center for Opportunity Policy in Education (SCOPE), and the National Board Resource Center (NBRC) have received a collaborative grant to create an Instructional Lead- ership Corps (ILC) of accomplished classroom teachers, site leaders, administrators and higher education professionals. The ILC will provide expertise for the instructional shifts needed to implement the CCSS in ELA and math, and the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). Those selected will support the design and implementation of school-based professional learning around instructional practice, and create and lead regional professional development. This is a three-year project involving a minimum of five release days each year. The commitment for Project Year 1 is for each ILC member to provide four one-day professional development sessions with another member of the ILC team and to attend two project meet- ings during the 2014-15 school year. Each ILC member will receive a stipend of $2,000 for Project Year 1. Have questions? Email Marlene Fong at mfong@cta.org.
