Teaching Matters

Today, we kicked off the second session of Leveraging AI to Strengthen Instructional Coherence, our new three-part leadership series in partnership with !

Last week, district leaders came together to wrestle with important questions around AI, instructional coherence, trust, implementation, and the future of teaching and learning.

Because the reality is: AI is already here. The question is how schools use it in ways that strengthen instruction without sacrificing critical thinking, professional judgment, or human connection.

As our CEO Dr. Carolyne Quintana shared, “We do not have to choose between innovation and humanity.”

We believe AI has real potential, but only when paired with thoughtful leadership, strong instructional systems, and the human judgment educators bring to their work every day.

Shout out to our incredible coaches, Lance Ozier and Ana Vargas, for facilitating these rich conversations and to Dr. Carolyne Quintana, Hewette Moore, Jelbin DeLaCruz and Nadine Dillon, CPC who came out to represent Team Teaching Matters!

In Paris, with a purpose!

Last weekend, 5 incredible runners took on the Paris Marathon on behalf of Teaching Matters and raised $10,000 in support of our mission!

We’re so grateful to this amazing team for showing up with heart, determination, and generosity.

Every mile run and every dollar raised helps power stronger teaching and deeper learning.

Please join us in celebrating our Paris Marathon runners and this incredible accomplishment!

At Teaching Matters, we don’t treat culture as a side conversation. It shapes how we show up and how we grow.

Yesterday’s quarterly all-staff retreat gave us space to ask better questions, reflect honestly, and get clear together.

And in between all of that? Laughter, debates, and a few very persuasive “deserted island” survival strategies.

Because we don’t do our best work in silos. We do it together.

Thoughtful. Collaborative. A little silly. Just how we like it. Here’s to Team Teaching Matters!
