Tuesday and Wednesday

Jen and I are going to be out January 28-29. Billy is going to have a sub and be in the office to assist with any issues you may have. Thank you, Billy!


I am excited about this training. We were invited to be a part of the Data Impact Project with the DOE. Only 10 schools in Florida are participating! The DIP is all about ESSA and schools that have two or more subgroups represented. As you know, I have talked a lot about this in our PLCs, so I am hoping to bring back more information to help these subgroups succeed.
