The first state-wide leadership cohort for World Language teachers met June 8-9, 2022. Together, our leaders learned:
- what great leaders do to become effective

Each participant designed a leadership project to implement during the 2022-2023 school year! Watch out Texas, the needle for student proficiency is about to move!
