I just want to take a few minutes to talk about why we are doing the Curvy Idol competition.
All of the proceeds raised for Curvy Idol are going to send girls to camp. Not just any girl; not just any camp. We want to send girls who battle with weight and self-image issues to a camp where they will learn to respect and love themselves and not succumb to the bullying comments that we all remember hearing in the halls at school.

Remember those voices?

Maybe someone made up a nasty name about you.
Maybe someone picked on you because you were too fat, too skinny, had no chest, had a big butt, had greasy hair, had bad teeth.
Maybe you were bullied for being different.

Or maybe YOU were the bully.

Kids can be cruel. We're going to help girls who deal with this every day. We're out to stop the hate. Make sure that these girls know that they are loved, beautiful, and fabulous!

Love,
A once-bullied little girl turned Curvy Queen

SEVEN 7 components-Teacher and Leader Effectiveness (TLE)

The Department believes that strengthening educator practice can be achieved by improving talent management systems. The Teacher and Leader Effectiveness (TLE) Continuum is made up of seven components that should be used in comprehensive and systematic ways to improve the quality, quantity, and diversity of the teacher and principal workforce, and most importantly – improve student outcomes. Within the context of a comprehensive TLE system, data about educator practice and student learning obtained from evaluation systems can help inform decisions to prepare, recruit, develop, retain, and ensure equitable access to effective educators.

Recruitment and Placement  – Activities to attract the most effective educators to LEAs and the schools that need them. Induction and Mentoring  – Individualized support for new and early career ed...

I want to do the right thing, White teachers...Black schools

Culturally Relevant Pedagogy Ladson-Billings wrote that culturally relevant teachers exhibit confidence in African American students' ability to learn by maintaining high academic expectations and affirming "their cultural identity . . ." (Ladson-Billings, 1995). Culturally relevant teachers harness the power inherent to their occupation to confront institutional and systemic practices which disempower students of color. For these instructors, education becomes a liberatory exercise where classroom assignments become opportunities to teach for social justice. Additionally, culturally relevant instructors place tremendous emphasis on supporting African American students' of academic achievement (Ladson-Billings, 2006). Far from sympathetic, this support represents a sincere desire to take the necessary measures so the educational experience is germane to these students' lived experiences. Lastly, Ladson-Billings asserts that culturally relevant instructor...
