|
A leading charter school organization is combining what many regard as two of the most promising education innovations to prepare a new generation of teachers for California and the nation. Summit Public Schools, which operates 11 schools in California and Washington State, has established what are called teacher “residencies,” innovative training programs based on the medical residency model that enables new doctors to work under the supervision of an experienced physician. |

Learning How Bullying Happens In Order To Prevent It |
|
One in four students report being bullied, but not all say they are bullied the same way. And some students are more likely to experience bullying than others.
That's what one new survey found after posing questions to more than 180,000 students across 412 schools between 2012 and 2017. The data, collected by the nonprofit organization Youth Truth Student Survey, looked at fifth- through 12th-graders in 37 states.
