📚 Growing Together, Achieving More!
On October 8, central office directors worked with David Chiprany from Solution Tree Learning to strengthen the collaborative process and explore ways to make teacher collaboration even more effective.
Then, on October 9, our building principals and teachers made the most of an early student dismissal by engaging in professional learning focused on intervention strategies, collaboration, and other practices designed to support student growth and achievement.
These opportunities allow our educators to share ideas, strengthen teamwork, and develop strategies that make a difference in the classroom. When our educators learn and grow together, our students benefit!
Thank you to our principals, teachers, and central office team for their continued dedication to professional growth and student success!
