SUMMARY:Write with Confidence: Mastering OST Writing in Grades 3-5
DESCRIPTION:Preparing young writers for the Ohio State Tests requires clarity\, structure\, and a solid understanding of what high-quality responses look like. This session provides a deep dive into the OST expectations for grades 3-5\, including how the rubrics break down organization\, development\, conventions\, and the use of textual evidence. Participants will examine sample student responses\, identify common strengths and misconceptions\, and explore kid-friendly language that helps younger learners internalize key writing skills. We’ll look at effective mini-lessons\, graphic organizers\, modeling techniques\, and strategies for helping students elaborate with clarity and purpose. Teachers will leave with ready-to-use resources\, scaffolded writing supports\, and confidence in how to guide students through both opinion and informational writing tasks.

SUMMARY:Clear\, Coherent\, and Comprehensive: OST Writing Success for Grades 6-12
DESCRIPTION:Secondary students face increasing demands in OST writing\, from synthesizing information across multiple texts to crafting logical\, evidence-based arguments. This session provides an in-depth look at what scorers are evaluating-and how to help students meet and exceed those expectations. Participants will analyze mentor texts\, explore high-impact approaches for teaching argumentation and explanatory writing\, and learn practical methods for improving organization\, elaboration\, and precision. We will also address common challenges such as weak evidence integration\, unclear reasoning\, and formulaic writing. You’ll gain strategies for supporting diverse learners\, building writing stamina\, and using feedback cycles to strengthen student work. By the end of the session\, teachers will be equipped with actionable tools\, model responses\, and classroom routines that drive consistent writing growth.

SUMMARY:Mathematics Cohort
DESCRIPTION:This virtual professional learning community brings together K-8 school leaders and teachers across Ohio to strengthen mathematics instruction and improve student outcomes. Meeting quarterly (9/23\, 11/18\, 1/13\, 3/10)\, each session explores research-based instructional strategies\, unpacks legislative updates\, and examines problems of practice focused on leading and implementing effective math instruction. A central goal of the cohort is to reframe deficit-based narratives about mathematics by cultivating bold\, asset-based mindsets among educators\, students\, and communities. Participants will be invited to apply new strategies\, reflect on implementation\, and refine practices\, bridging leadership and instruction to foster equity and high expectations. This collaborative space supports educators in creating sustainable systems for strong mathematics teaching and learning that benefit all students.

SUMMARY:Wired for Success: Executive Functioning in Special Education
DESCRIPTION:Executive functioning (EF) skills like planning\, organization\, and self-regulation are often at the root of academic and behavioral challenges for students with disabilities. This session explores how EF difficulties show up in learners with ADHD\, autism\, and learning disabilities\, and how trauma can further impact these skills. Participants will gain practical\, trauma-informed strategies to support EF development through direct instruction\, co regulation\, and classroom routines. Leave with tools to help students build independence\, reduce shutdowns\, and improve task initiation\, while honoring neurodiversity and promoting student success.

SUMMARY:Teach Like a Champion 2
DESCRIPTION:This is the second session for the book study on Teach Like A Champion’s Guide to the Science of Reading. Anyone can attend any session! Attendees who register and attend at least three sessions will receive a copy of the book. In this meeting\, we explore two critical engines of comprehension. First\, we cover Fluency\, discussing why a lack of automaticity in reading stalls comprehension at every grade level and then dive into research-based methods to build speed\, accuracy\, and prosody. Next\, we review the Hidden Power of Background Knowledge\, arguing that it is the single greatest predictor of reading success. We will share actionable strategies for building the knowledge that underpins complex thinking and makes skills-based learning possible.

SUMMARY:Joyful Rigor: Designing Instruction That Lifts\, Not Limits
DESCRIPTION:Teaching students with disabilities should be both challenging and joyful. This session explores how to design instruction that affirms students’ identities\, engages their intellect\, and cultivates deep learning\, without sacrificing creativity or connection. Grounded in Gholdy Muhammad’s Five Pursuits (Identity\, Skill\, Intellect\, Criticality\, and Joy)\, participants will learn how to shift lessons from compliance driven to culturally responsive.
