Rigor and student engagement every day in every class.

My name is Anthony Sudweeks and I am the Academic Director of Wallace Stegner. 

As I walk through the schools, I frequently pull out my phone and record good teaching. These are not staged or unique moments.

This is what a typical Wallace Stegner class looks like every day:
