Teacher Training
Carroll School knows that teachers and tutors have the power to change lives. We see it every day in our classrooms.
That's why we are fiercely dedicated to providing a robust teacher training program filled with best practices, cutting-edge strategies, and leading research in the academic field. The Hall Copacino Institute of Professional Study courses were created to help identify and train teachers for the different aspects that make a successful teacher at Carroll. All educators take part in professional study each year and over their time as educators, they take all five courses: (1) Orton-Gillingham, (2) The Whole Child, (3) Data-Informed Instruction (4) Pedagogy - The Science of Teaching, and (5) New Teacher Training.
Our professional development workshops, teacher trainings, and Master's programs enrich the qualifications of Carroll's faculty, educators from other schools, and career changers.
