Great job by the cast, crew, and directors of McGavock High School ‘s fall play R.U.R. Fun fact: this play introduced the word “robot” to the English language! 🤖🎭

Can anyone point me to research or data showing the efficacy of instructional coaches? I know some great individuals in these roles but I’m wondering why we have a lot of coaching jobs alongside classrooms without teachers…

Having to blast a Spotify brown noise playlist in my headphones because they've decided to do a FIFTEEN MINUTE intercom test with zero warning that includes playing a random interview that I can't even place? Please tell me how this is functional.
