Congratulations to DCPS Dr. Angela Gunter for being named a KY NBCT Champion. This award is given to individuals who have shown support for furthering the mission of spreading accomplished teaching to improve student learning in the Commonwealth.
Dr. Gunter serves as the District Literacy Instructional Coach and Gifted & Talented Coordinator,
Dr. Gunter stated, “I can’t tell you how much this recognition means to me. Of all the work I do, NBCT professional learning is the most transformative for those I work with. I will never forget how when I was first certifying, simply reading the questions made me realize changes I needed to make in my teaching. I credit the NBCT process for making me a reflective educator with a lifelong commitment to learning. I’m thrilled that all the newly certified teachers will be joining me on this amazing journey.”
