From email: 

Local Fitzgerald Elementary School Math Specialist Christine Gault has been recognized as a DreamBox Learning Hero for delivering excellence in education and student success. Christine is one of 10 educators and 10 administrators across the US and Canada selected from more than 100 applicants. Would you be interested in writing about this recognition or profiling Christine?

Fitzgerald has a high percentage of children from low-income families and serves a high ELL population. Many of the students have limited math exposure and vocabulary, but in Christine’s role, she sees that adaptive learning platforms gives students the opportunity to be exposed to quality math instruction and practice at home.
