Teachers: The role teachers play in students’ lives is second only to that of parents and caregivers. Teachers and other school personnel are often at the front line, and the person parents and caregivers look to for guidance.
Administrators: As school leaders, you are an essential part of the learning process. You support your teachers’ abilities to develop learner-centered classrooms.
Parents: You are your child’s first and most important teacher. You can use learner-centered strategies to support their growth and development at home.
