Transition Plus
Finishing MPS Strong!
The Final Stretch
While many of us and our students are excited about the upcoming long summer break, for many of our students this break means uncertainty. Some of our students do not know where they are going to be getting their 2 meals a day they count on and others are going to be lost without the daily structure they receive. With this in mind, please continue to provide our students with the structure and routine they need and deserve up until the end.
Thank You!

Summer Work Proposals
PBL 101 Workshop
Please let me know if you are interested, so I can share with Opal.
PBL 101 is BIE’s foundational three-day onsite workshop. Based on BIE's model of Gold Standard PBL, the workshop provides participants with the skills and knowledge needed to design, assess and manage a rigorous, relevant, and standards-based project. The workshop models the project process. Facilitated by one of BIE's expert National Faculty, the workshop is a balanced blend of direct instruction, video analysis, hands-on work, resource sharing, and peer collaboration and feedback. Participants are actively engaged in project design, with the expectation that every teacher or teaching team will generate a project plan that receives formative feedback from both participants and BIE National Faculty. All participants receive a free copy of BIE's highly regarded PBL 101 Workbook, which is exclusively for PBL 101 participants and not sold separately.
