Northview’s Calloway Honored As One Of State’s ‘Highest Impact’ Teachers

March 3, 2016

Northview High School teacher Tammy Calloway received double honor last week — not only was she honored at the Golden Apple Dinner for being Northview’s teacher of the year, but also she was recognized as one of the “highest impact” teachers in the state.

In a recent letter, Commissioner of Education Pam Stewart congratulated Calloway for being one of the highest impact teachers in the state.

“On behalf of the state of Florida, I would like to congratulate you for being one of the highest impact teachers in the state,” Stewart wrote. “In a recent analysis of your former students’ performance on statewide standardized assessments, for which a state level value-added model (VAM) score is calculated, the Florida Department of Education found that your impact on student learning is among the most statistically-significantly positive in the state.”

Calloway has been teaching for 22 years. She teaches ninth grade reading and co-teaches ninth grade language arts and earth science.
