Dr. Carroll has great expertise on education issues pertaining to teacher quality. In 2003, NCTAF released the groundbreaking report No Dream Denied: A Pledge to Americas Children, which showed the United States has a teacher retention problem, not a teacher shortage. Dr. Carroll can provide examples on best practices for strong teacher induction or mentoring programs, and teacher preparation programs. He can offer a shrewd diagnosis of the problems that plague schools and offer strategies to turn those schools around. NCTAF is particularly concerned with the inequitable conditions that exist in many schools that serve low-income and minority students. NCTAF is working to make sure that all students have access to a quality education in a school organized for success. PR Contact: Don Goncalves, 781-793-9380, dgoncalves@tizinc.com
