Adult & Community Education
Tuesday in the Know - November 28, 2017
Welcome back from the Leadership Team
We hope everyone took time this Thanksgiving break to spend it with family and friends, reflecting and appreciating on how fortunate we are to enjoy this time. It is hard to believe that we have a few weeks left of the semester before the winter break starts. Please take these last few weeks to engage your students in meaningful conversations and activities. For those of you that are interested there is a GED workshop on Monday, December 4th at ITECH you will need to register at IPDAE.

I invite you to spend some time with your students reviewing the information found in
