Welcome Back Teachers, for our last time together this year!

Explain to us how this grade level training has been beneficial to you with your instruction this year.

Have you incorporated any new ways of using the materials different from what was discussed at trainings?

As always, we love to hear your honest opinions. We have enjoyed spending this time during the trainings with you. Please contact either of us if there is anything you need that will help you in your classrooms.

Thank you for “ALL” that you do for the kids of Madison County!
