Best of GLAD - Upcoming Training Opportunity
Due to the fact that we had a high number of teachers sign up for the Best of GLAD training this fall, we have created a second training to accommodate more teachers who are interested in attending. The second training will be starting in February. Feedback from the first group has been positive and teachers are excited to implement their new learning to support our EL students. Please review the Best of GLAD - Strategies for our EL Students for specific dates, details, and to sign up by December 14. Please note that spots are limited.
