As I form the foundation of the work for the new school year, what crystallized for me during the 3 day Bea McGarvey workshop on What Works in Schools, continues to be what I posted about last November:
A school is people learning. (click on the sentence to go to the original post – still holds true).
I’m excited about the District taking the Marzano research as the foundation of working, as it will give us common language
