A Fun Summer CPD Opportunity
Maryland Centers for Creative Classrooms (MC3) provides research-based, professional development series designed to support educators in developing skills, knowledge, and dispositions needed to lead quality arts-based instruction for 21st-century learners.
There are various options available this summer to engage in MC3's professional learning for both classroom teachers (to integrate creativity and the arts into the teaching and learning process) and for arts educators to deepen their practice. To learn more about these free (and super fun!) CDP offerings, visit the MC3 website at MSDE, or check with Jess on who to contact!

News from your Tech Liaisons!
As we are recirculating and checking devices, we have noticed that many have been switched accidentally between students or even between siblings. Students will take their device to the next grade level so it is important that we have the correct device checked out to the correct student.
Thank you for your help and support with this. Let me know when your devices are labeled to be entered into our next raffle! If you would like assistance with labeling devices, please let me know! :-)
