Primary

Purpose:

The Master Team Reach Teacher (MTRT) serves on a multi-classroom leader’s (MCL’s) team, directly teaching more students than usual, but typically without raising instructional group sizes. Master team reach teachers also help the MCL lead a larger team (e.g., by coaching part of the team) and/or reach significantly more students than other teachers. Additionally, the MTRT has previously produced consistently high-growth student learning.

With guidance from the team’s MCL, MTRTs plan and deliver instruction for multiple classes in a school where students rotate between face-to-face learning with the teacher and digital or offline learning supervised by a paraprofessional known as a reach associate or a teacher resident. While one class of students is with a reach associate, the MTRT teaches another class of students, focusing on delivering personalized and enriched instruction.

Each MTRT is responsible for co-planning, co-preparing, and delivering instruction, and co-monitoring student progress to determine instructional needs. MTRTs are also responsible for monitoring the effectiveness of instruction supervised by the reach associate(s) and making or recommending changes. The MTRT collaborates with others working with the same students or subjects, including other members of the multi-classroom leader’s team as well as tutors or reach associates, to review student progress and change instruction to ensure high-progress, enriched learning for every student.

In elementary schools, teachers may specialize by subject.
