WRCCS School Development Day
The WRCCS School Development Day will be held virtually on Wednesday, April 14, as part of ISN's National Conference on Educational Innovation. This is a free and open to the public full day of workshop sessions, discussion, and resource sharing for those starting new schools or those that are looking to innovate an existing school.
Come witness the launch of WRCCS Micro-credentials! Planning, opening, and sustaining a successful Wisconsin Charter school requires a ton of commitment, a bunch of learning, and a whole lot of community building. WRCCS Micro-credentials is an opportunity for charter schools to highlight specific strengths, skills, and merits of specific charter schools, elevate their profile in their community, and help other Wisconsin charter schools locate experts in the field. Come learn and gain access to artifacts of success as charter schools from around the state defend a WRCCS Micro-credential live. If you are interested in playing a more active role and want to be a reviewer please click here. See the full WRCCS Micro-credential process here.
