Emmet Rosenfeld Earns National Board Certification

Category: Technology


NVWP Teacher Consultant Emmet Rosenfeld has earned National Board Certification. Emmet chronicled his two years of portfolio assembly and self-evaluation that culminated in a day-long computerized test and a result that was disturbing, although not disheartening, in his two blogs, Certifiable? and the more recent Eduholic, and in the article “Teaching for the Test,” which appeared in the Washington Post Magazine on February 17, 2008. He triumphantly announced his certification in a blog entry on November 21.

Emmet is an English teacher and the Dean of Students at the Congressional Schools of Virginia in Falls Church, and one of fewer than 1,200 National Board Certified Teachers in Virginia. He has been an NVWP Teacher Consultant since 1997.

Congratulations, Emmet!
