Cumberland County Schools Joins Forces with Opportunity Culture® to Increase Student Success

From Cumberland County Schools, December 1, 2020

To provide all students with excellent teaching and to help students close achievement gaps and leap ahead, our schools are creating an Opportunity Culture® for their teachers and students. Opportunity Culture® models enable schools to reach every student with excellent teachers and their teams—consistently—while paying teachers more for their extra responsibilities, and helping all educators improve on the job and work collaboratively. All pay supplements are funded through reallocations of existing budgets–no temporary grants.

Our school district is part of a growing, national Opportunity Culture® movement to extend the reach of excellent teachers, principals, and their teams to more students, for more pay, within regular school budgets. That means great opportunities to have a fulfilling career path full of support. Read the full press release…
