We basically live on the sun☀️30 days in a row of 110+ is unreal (previous record was 18 days). My kids go back to school next Monday. How are they going to have recess? azcentral.com/story/news/loc…

In a pandemic-like response, I find myself signing emails to other folks in Phoenix with something like “I hope you are finding ways to stay cool in this relentless heat.” More 110+ days in the forecast🫠 #AZsummer #itsnotusuallythishotforthislong

In an extensive survey of cars on the road conducted by my children in the back seat, we have determined that pink is the least common car color, followed by purple and yellow. Nils Homer #researchers

Thank you to Ms. Chambers (2nd&3rd), in whose class I first loved learning; Dr. Holland (12th), who uncovered the magic of literature; Dr. Palmer (Uni) whose passion led me to teaching; Jal Mehta and Meira Levinson, who helped me become a scholar. #UpliftATeacher #UpliftTeaching

I am so grateful for the incredible community of staff, districts, partners, Advisory Board members, teachers, and residents that make AZTR special. Amidst the darkness in the world, we are fortunate to be surrounded by so much light and hope. The work continues❤️

Second year resident Stephanie Miller is the teacher of record this year. When the temps dropped and she noticed her students getting cold, she turned to her knitting group - who came together to knit individual shalls for every child in her class. #upliftteaching #authenticcare

At last night’s #GoldenGlobes, Paul Giamatti commended teachers in his acceptance speech for Male Actor in a Motion Picture Musical or Comedy. Shoutouts like these are a great reminder that our members’ work doesn’t go unnoticed!

The Arizona Teacher Residency is excited to partner with Osborn School District on a $4 million, 5-year federal grant that recruits, prepares, supports, & retains high-quality teachers. #UpliftTeaching #Arizona #Phoenix

This is a sample financial package for folks who join our program. We also have child care grants available for those who need them. The master’s pay bump will vary across districts. Folks must be eligible to join AmeriCorps and apply for Arizona Teachers Academy.

Please share with all your networks! We are recruiting for our next cohort and would love to see many aspiring teachers at this event🍎 NCTR

As I argue in this op-ed, I truly believe that if we uplift teaching, we will uplift Arizona.

"ATA works because it does not just pour more warm bodies into the leaky bucket of our teaching pipeline. It helps repair the bucket by uplifting the profession." 🗣️ Arizona Teacher Residency's Dr. Victoria Theisen-Homer on why funding the Arizona Teachers Academy is vital for our students and our state.

I have been following, admiring, and citing the work of the Learning Policy Institute since it was created, so I am really excited to be able to say that AZTR is included in their new report on federal and state policy to advance teacher residencies across the country🍎
