Your 2013/2014 PowerWalks Hero Schools!

In furtherance of a LYS Nation tradition, we will take this time to tip our caps to the campuses that have embraced the most important step in creating and maintaining an action oriented professional learning community.  These are the campuses that have conducted an extraordinary number of formative classroom observations during a school year. This past year there was a total of 81,584 PowerWalks completed on campuses across the country and any school that was able to complete more that 700 observations demonstrated noticeable resolve to support teachers and improve student outcomes.

Now without further ado, here are your thirty-nine PowerWalks Hero Schools for the 2013/2014 school year. Congratulations!!!
