End of Year Friday Feature
News and Notes for the Madison Staff (6/3/15)
Google Survey Results - Action Plan
More than 10 Madison teachers surveyed replied they were not Level 1 proficient and really needed assistance. Eric Slaughter has volunteered to come in and host a hands-on tutorial just for Madison during the Friday lunch hour!! If you are struggling with the basics, please plan on attending. RSVP with me so I can supply some treats! :)
