The North Carolina Council of Teachers of Mathematics

Promoting Excellence in Mathematics Teaching and Learning for All

The North Carolina Council of Teachers of Mathematics

Leadership Collaboration

NCCTM is committed to strengthening mathematics education across North Carolina by investing in the people who lead this work. This includes district math specialists, math coaches, administrators who support math instruction, math department chairs, and other teacher leaders.

To deepen this commitment, NCCTM has launched a new leadership-focused committee dedicated to increasing support, connection, and learning opportunities for mathematics education leaders across the state.

This work is grounded in the belief that strong leadership systems are essential for sustaining high-quality mathematics teaching and learning in schools and districts.

Supporting Math Education Leaders Across North Carolina

What is the purpose of our Leadership Collaboration?

This effort is intentionally designed to serve district math specialists, math coaches, administrators who support math instruction, math department chairs, and other teacher leaders across North Carolina.

Connecting Leaders Across the State

Mathematics leadership can feel isolating, especially when navigating complex decisions or new initiatives. NCCTM is working to build stronger connections among math leaders across North Carolina by creating spaces where leaders can share questions, ideas, and resources with peers in other districts.

A statewide leadership listserv and collaboration network is currently in development and will be available to NCCTM members soon.

Connecting Leaders to NCSM

NCSM Leadership in Mathematics Education

As a state affiliate, NCCTM is proud to be connected to NCSM, the national organization dedicated to supporting mathematics education leadership.

Through this Leadership Collaboration, NCCTM seeks to:

  1. Strengthen alignment with NCSM’s leadership priorities
  2. Expand access to leadership-focused learning opportunities
  3. Create clear pathways for leaders in North Carolina to engage with broader national conversations around mathematics leadership
 

Leadership Learning Series

NCCTM’s Leadership Learning Series will meet monthly during the spring to provide space for math education leaders across North Carolina to connect, learn, and collaborate around high-leverage leadership topics.

All sessions are virtual, free, and open to members and non-members.

Registration will open for each session individually.
