Co-Teaching Presentation
Speakers: Brian Reilly, TES Special Education Facilitator

Over the past few years, Tyngsborough Public Schools has increased learning opportunities for students within a co-taught classroom. The co-taught classroom affords learners the opportunity to participate in various instructional models that allow students access to a diverse learning experience to meet their instructional needs. In the co-taught classroom, students with and without disabilities access rigorous instruction that is differentiated to specific learner need and benefit from the constant collaboration and expertise that both general education and special education teachers bring to the learning environment. This workshop seeks to help answer questions about our co-teaching practices and answer any questions families may have about the increase in this practice.
SKI AND SNOWBOARD CLUB IS COMING!
The Ski & Snowboard Club advisors are excited to announce that we will be skiing and riding at Pats Peak in Henniker, NH, this winter. We are looking forward to a new mountain with greater terrain and hopefully better conditions further north. Students interested in joining the club are encouraged to sign-up early. For more information, how to sign-up, and required paperwork, please use the following link:
