Lusher Charter School is in partnership with Tulane University.
Lusher would like to extend a big congratulations to three members of our faculty. Matt Owen (High School Math), Katie Patterson (6th Grade ELA), and Juli Raudonis (6th Grade Science) have all been certified by the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards, or NBPTS.
To quote the official NBPTS press release (which you can read in full here):
National Board Certification - the "gold standard" for teaching excellence - was celebrated today at a White House event heralding the newest class of 6,200 board certified teachers, which brings to nearly 100,000 the total number of board certified teachers in the U.S.
"National board certification is synonymous with great teaching. While our nation is focused on the need for the highest quality teachers, board certification truly is the gold standard," said Ronald Thorpe, president and CEO of the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards.
Please join us in congratulating Matt, Katie, and Juli on such a wonderful, hard-earned accomplishment!
