Hello and welcome to the THL newsletter! Here are this week's updates:

  • Back to School!: By now, many districts are back in session and we want to welcome everyone back! We admire each of you as you return to support our students across the state. Many of you will face additional challenges this year as the school year begins and as you work to accelerate learning for all students. Thank you for all that you do for Texas students! 
  • Recent Updates Round-up: As many of you step back into the classroom we wanted to offer a recap of some of the great THL support that released this summer!
  • TCLAS Application has closed: Districts that completed a TCLAS application should receive preliminary award notifications starting September 10th. Stay tuned to the TCLAS website for more information and resources.

🗨 What Texas Educators Are Saying

“Eureka Math has become such a time-saver when it comes to planning. Now, I’m thinking more about how vs trying to find what for my classroom instruction.”
