Literacy Week: This summer, more than 70 teachers and leaders from North Adams Public Schools came together for our very first Summer Literacy Institutes. Over several powerful days of learning, participants explored:
✨ Adolescent Literacy ✨ Reciprocal Teaching Strategies ✨ Foundational Literacy ✨ Strategies to Support Writing
The energy, collaboration, and commitment to strengthening literacy instruction for every student were inspiring. Thank you to all who joined us on this journey — your dedication is laying the foundation for a stronger, more literate future for our community! 💡✏️📖
Here’s to building on this momentum and making literacy a shared success story across NAPS!

🌟 Drury Teachers and Leaders at Babson College! 🌟
This summer, Drury educators took part in a three-day Springpoint training at Babson College, where they collaborated to practice designing transformational learning experiences for students.
Through hands-on workshops and deep discussions, teachers and leaders explored innovative approaches to instruction that center student voice, engagement, and real-world application. The work at Babson reflects our commitment to reimagining learning so every Drury student is prepared to thrive in the future.
👏 A huge thank you to our educators for bringing curiosity, creativity, and dedication to this important work!
