Education summit about changing school culture

By Kevin Hoffman, New Era Staff Writer

Nationally renowned educator Dr. Anthony Muhammad delivered the keynote speech at this weekend’s education summit, telling teachers and administrators cultural change is not about the schools. It’s about changing the people in them.

Closing achievement gaps in local institutions and reinvigorating faculty morale was the focus of the Regional Education Summit on Saturday at Hopkinsville Community College. Muhammad, whose most notable accomplishment came at a Michigan middle school where he helped double improvement on student assessments in five years, encouraged teachers and parents to be a catalyst for change.
