CPI Training Update
I know that many of your cards have an expiration date of June 2019. I checked with Amber about this, and she told me that the CPI cards are good for two years from the training date. The CPI trainers are instructed to write June on the CPI cards to ensure individuals' cards don't expire prior to the start of the school year. If you were trained after August 2017, a refresher course is appropriate.
Stay tuned for details on the training.

Hive Summit Honey Drop
Here is the message I received from Mr. Matera:
Ok guys, this is really cool.
I was thinking about ways we can create a buzz about learning and attending The Hive Summit when it is so many months away. That is when I came up with the idea for Hive Honey Drops.
Each drop will include a video from the past summit, additional PD videos to push us even more, and exclusive resources, content, and offers.
The only catch is that each Hive Honey Drops page will only work for a limited time.
How it works: Each email will have a Hive Honey Drop section where you will get a link to the drop. Follow the link and enter the secret password.
