Teachers at Empowerment Academy are part of a school-wide team.

Examples of such teacher supports include:

  • A research-based curriculum and supporting curricular materials;
  • High-quality formative assessments, aligned with the curriculum, that help identify when students have not achieved mastery of a skill, concept, or knowledge item; and
