“In high-performing systems, teachers are resourced, encouraged, and expected to work with and learn from each other." ~ Andy Hargreavves, Leading Teacher, March 2012

Terese Emry's been at the heart of teacher leadership at CSTP since 2007 and at OSPI before that. In the eight years since she left her classroom at Victor Falls Elementary, she's created inspirational events, forward-thinking leadership tools, an award-winning blog and made a significant difference in the lives of thousands of teacher leaders.
Terese is moving on to assume a position at ESD 121 and we invite you to help us thank her for her years of service. JoEllen Killion from Learning Forward suggests we might "...share richly detailed stories of how another person touched us personally and professionally." We agree.
Think about sending a card or letter to the CSTP office and addressed to Terese. We'll add your thank you to ours in a big basket of good wishes. Her last day is June 30 so if you can find time to do this soon, we'd much appreciate it. By June 28th, mail to:
Terese Emry

We will miss Terese immensely and wish her well. We're glad she's only moving to Renton because we intend to bring her back to CSTP events often.
