Nashville Teacher Residency leverages TORSH to strengthen coaching, observation, and candidate development across its residency program, and they’re now celebrating a 100% edTPA pass rate! By enabling consistent feedback, structured growth, and streamlined tracking, TORSH helps ensure each candidate is supported with precision and purpose.
This year, 100% of NTR candidates who were not on parental leave submitted and passed the edTPA on their first attempt- a critical step toward licensure and long-term classroom success. It’s a testament to the incredible preparation and mentorship baked into the residency model.
“This outcome reflects the deep commitment of our residents and the strong, values-driven systems we’ve built at NTR to support their development. Tools like TORSH have been essential in creating meaningful, data-informed coaching that pushes practice forward. Aligned with our mission to honor the dignity of every student and our vision of cultivating excellent, reflective educators who pursue liberation in Nashville schools, we are confident our teachers will leave a lasting impact on the communities they serve,” says Demetria Giles, Senior Manager of Curriculum.

Whether organizations are preparing candidates for external assessments or tracking their own measures of success, TORSH provides the tools to drive consistent, meaningful progress at every stage of educator development.
