“The more you have a relationship, the more parents trust you, and they’ll support you and work for you and understand some of the decisions.” We're inspired by the leadership of Tiffany Anderson, superintendent of Topeka Public Schools, who exemplifies a “boots-on-the-ground” approach. Her commitment to building meaningful relationships within the community is driving success in her district. Tiffany is strengthening family-school partnerships, customizing communication strategies, prioritizing equity and inclusion, using data-driven decisions, and fostering an inclusive and supportive school culture through clear, visionary leadership. We’re proud to support Topeka Public Schools with Eureka Math and hope our family engagement resources contribute to building and strengthening these vital relationships. https://ow.ly/LWJ950SWHE5

In the land of SAU6, where the teachers are grand, They gathered together, all lending a hand. With minds full of wonder and hearts full of cheer, They dove into learning, without any fear. Expressive and receptive, oh, what a pair! They danced through the concepts with wisdom to spare. They noticed, they wondered, their minds open wide, Exploring the questions that each one supplied. With "Which One Doesn't Belong?" as their guide, They built thinking classrooms, where students take pride. Fluency routines in math, they did explore, Eureka Math Squared, a treasure to adore! These teachers, so clever, so bright and so keen, Embraced every lesson, no detail unseen. With each new idea, their spirits did soar, Preparing young minds to learn and do more. In classrooms, they’ll bring what they’ve learned to the light, Making math magical, just like it’s right. The students will flourish, oh yes, they’ll succeed, Thanks to the teachers who planted the seed. So here’s to the educators of SAU6, Masters of teaching, with all of their tricks. They’ll nurture and guide, with wisdom and care, For in their great hearts, there’s always more to share! Great Minds Catlin McLaughlin #greatminds
