We are excited to have our Momentum Academy leadership together for a 2-day leadership workshop! Our dedicated leaders came together yesterday for day 1 to review this year's goals and results, set priorities for next year, and align our building schedules to ensure our teachers are set up for success. An important part of our discussions centered around shaping the adult culture within our schools and understanding how it directly influences the scholar culture. By fostering a supportive and empowering environment for our teachers and staff, we are laying the foundation for a thriving academic community. We are proud of the progress made and look forward to continuing discussions around these strategic initiatives to continue driving excellence at Momentum Academy. #Leadership #Education #TeacherSuccess #AdultCulture #MomentumAcademySTL
