STUDENT GROWTH starts with your TEACHERS...
I have been that teacher wanting to help my students grow academically but lacking the support and guidance to do so.
I've also been that administrator wanting to help all my students grow, but not knowing the right steps to take.
After five years in administration, 10+ years in education, 3 degrees and 9 years of offering professional development, I discovered the key to student success. 🔑
YAY!!!
The key to student success is found in the instructional support given to teachers for them to reach their highest capacity. 💥 BOOM 💥
"For the first time in 20 years, I received a low score on my teacher evaluation. I was ashamed, hurt and disappointed. Mrs. McNair was given the task to train me on small group teaching. She was innovative, caring and very knowledgeable of the curriculum. She took out the time to model how to teach small groups in both reading and math. She helped me to interpret my data to form groups, modeled best practices with small groups and provided me with great resources.
After being trained on small group instruction, I was able earn higher scores on my evaluations and my students reading scores and levels increased over 50%. I know that Aja McNair is a great teacher, facilitator, administrator and encourager. She does all these things with fidelity and a positive attitude."
Increased staff morale with teachers who feel valued and supported instructionally.

"I have worked with Aja since I started teaching. Over the years, she has guided me with strategies on ways to connect and get my students engaged. I was used to students who just sat down and listened. When I met Aja, I was so intrigued with all her engaging fun activities that she did with her students. As she shared with me how to do hands on activities and even guided reading, (she's the guided reading and close reading guru) I developed tremendously as a teacher. I knew her strategies worked when I watched my students advance grade levels in reading.
To other teachers, I would say to soak up as much as you can out of her from differentiated activities and choice boards to digital Nearpod lessons. She's truly been my go to administrator over the years."

I helped this elementary school go from being on the at-risk list to a B rated school.

"Aja helped my fourth grade students reach the highest level on the Georgia Milestone test. She coached me on looking at my iReady data and developing lessons that catered to my student's needs and challenged them.
Her way of looking at data totally changed the way I look at my classroom data. She is gifted at breaking things down and setting realistic goals.
In addition to her helping my test scores, she also helped me with my classroom management systems.
I'm so blessed to have worked with her. She's so knowledgeable and willing to help beyond what is asked of her."
