The New Teacher Project  (TNTP) released the The Teacher Talent Toolbox today. According to the TNTP website, the toolbox is an open-source library of proven (since we are more cautious here at the OEP, we would probably say “promising” instead of “proven”) resources for building a thriving teacher team. The toolbox is tailored to the needs of schools serving high-poverty communities, and focuses on 6 critical areas:

1. Recruitment and Hiring
2. Evaluation
3. Retaining High Performers
4. Performance Accountability
5. Teacher Development
6. Building a Professional Culture
