EdConnective Teacher Resources for Paducah Public Schools
EdConnective is proud to serve Paducah Public Schools teachers. Through non-evaluative, personalized interaction with expert educators, EdConnective helps teachers through virtual observation and practical feedback to help them maximize their own potential, and for students in turn to maximize theirs. This is more critical than even as teachers are asked to provide hybrid/virtual instruction. Below are a number of free resources available to district teachers including workshop recordings, blog posts, and teacher experiences with EdConnective.
