District Targets Student Achievement through Quality Teaching Initiative

Franklin County, North Carolina is a rural area that lies on the fringe of the fast-growing Research Triangle. The county is changing quickly as population grows and new companies like biofuel innovator Novozymes locate here.

With 21st Century Skills a critical need, Franklin County Schools are working to position themselves as a model for innovation. The system's ambitious plan incorporates research-based strategies, modern teaching tools, staff collaboration, data-driven planning, assessment and accountability. FCS is partnering with The Centers for Quality Teaching and Learning to provide QTL™ professional development that lays the groundwork for better teaching and higher achievement.

How the QTL Partnership Began...

"QTL is
the most powerful
staff development program we use.
Our teachers love it,
and our students are benefiting from it."

Dr. Bert L'Homme
Franklin County Schools Superintendent
