Congrats to Lisa, Tree, and Bev for being invited to serve on the Faculty Advisory Council!
Woot woot, Lisa, Tree, and Bev!
Congrats Jessica!
K12 recently launched a leadership training program for aspiring administrators. In this very first cohort, Jessica was one of a handful of awesome staff from across the K12 network selected to participate in the Grow Emerging Leader program in the FAST Administrator development track.
The selection consisted of a rigorous process, including an initial nomination, with the final selection made by our K12 Regional Vice President. Jessica's years of service at IDVA, dedication to growth, and overall awesomeness was vital to her selection.
Join me in congratulating Jessica in being selected for this training program!
Great job, Jess!
PS: Don't fret, neither Jessica's job or job responsibilities are changing. :)
