National Board for Professional Teaching Standards announces public review period for Science Standards

The National Board for Professional Teaching Standards (NBPTS) announces its public review period for Science Standards, Third Edition for teachers of students ages 11-18+. Practicing teachers fill a majority of seats on standards committees with other members representing districts, states, and higher education.

NBPTS Standards reflect the Five Core Propositions that are the foundation of National Board Certification; identify specific knowledge, skills, and attitudes that support accomplished practice, while emphasizing the holistic nature of teaching; illustrate how a teacher's professional judgment is reflected in action; and describe how the standards come to life in different settings.

Science Standards will be available for public review January 9th - February 5th. The standards can be accessed online at:
