FROM SARAH
I Don't Think Teachers Need Someone Else's Classroom.
After more than 20 years in classrooms and instructional coaching, I've seen teachers handed programs, strategies, initiatives, and more ideas than they could ever possibly use.
What I believe teachers really need is a strong foundation for making their own intentional decisions—for their students, their classroom, and the teacher they want to be.
THAT'S WHY THIS COMMUNITY EXISTS
We won't hand you someone else's classroom.
We'll help you build yours.
Bring the question you're thinking about. Try one of our Top TEN™ framework moves. Tell us what happened. Learn from another teacher. Ask me what I'd think about next.
Then take what fits back into your classroom and keep building from there.
The goal isn't to make you dependent on another program.
It's to help you become more confident in knowing what your classroom needs and what you want to do about it.
Real Talk. Real Tools. Real Results.
WHY TEACH LIKE A TOP TEN™?
Your PD Day Might End at 3:30.
Your Classroom Questions Don't.
School professional learning has an important job: helping a whole staff move toward shared priorities.
But sometimes you need a place to work on the teaching happening in your classroom, with your students, right now.
WHAT YOU DON'T NEED MORE OF
âś• Another strategy dropped into your lap with no time to figure out how it fits.
âś• Twenty conflicting answers from a giant Facebook group.
âś• Hours scrolling for the one idea that might solve today's problem.
âś• A behavior program that asks you to teach someone else's way.
WHAT YOU DO NEED
âś“ A trusted place to bring the question you're actually thinking about.
âś“ Connected frameworks instead of disconnected tips and tricks.
âś“ Teachers working from the same culture-first beliefs.
âś“ A way to learn, try something, come back, and decide what to do next.
THIS IS THE DIFFERENCE
Learn → Try → Come Back → Refine
You don't just collect another idea and move on. You put it to work, see what happens with your students, talk it through, and keep strengthening your own professional judgment.
WHAT HAPPENS INSIDE
This Isn't Another Place to Collect More Stuff.
It's a place to keep learning, trying, talking, and growing as the school year unfolds—with a clear focus on the teaching that's actually in front of you.
TOP TEN™ CHALLENGES
Break the Big Ideas Into Moves You Can Actually Try.
Throughout the year, we take Top TEN™ frameworks and break them into short, focused daily tasks you can put to work right away—during summer planning or with students tomorrow.
PRIVATE COMMUNITY FEED
Your Question Doesn't Get Lost in a Facebook Group.
This is our own private community—not Facebook. Ask questions, share what you're trying, tell us what happened, and learn from a smaller group of K–12 teachers working from the same culture-first foundation.
ASK SARAH
Bring the Classroom You're Actually Teaching.
Wondering what to try next? Bring your question into the community and get Sarah's perspective as you think through the routines, language, participation, relationships, expectations, and ownership in your own classroom.
CONNECTED TOOLS + RESOURCES
Use What You Need When You Need It.
You'll find Top TEN™ frameworks, prompts, tools, and resources connected to the work we're doing—so you're not digging through an endless resource vault trying to decide what matters.
THE TOP TEN™ LOOP
Learn It → Try It → Talk About It → Refine It
Professional growth shouldn't end when someone hands you the strategy. This is where you actually put it to work, see what happens, and decide what comes next.
HAPPENING NOW INSIDE THE COMMUNITY
Our Standards Challenge
We're breaking standards-based planning into small daily tasks teachers can work through one move at a time—so the standards don't just sit in a planning document. They actually shape the learning experiences you build for students.
