I hope you are starting off with a fabulous summer vacation! I have already seen many of you (here at school), so I know some of you have yet to have much fun! But, there are many more days ahead. . .
Important Reminders
I wanted to send out a few reminders about professional learning opportunities for this summer. Please remember that you will need at least 18 flex hours (these must be professional learning) for the 2017-2018 school year. There are truly several great options for learning this summer, so take advantage of these free learning opportunities!
Also, I have one area in particular below that I am needing everyone to complete this summer
by July 1st.
We are applying to become an Apple Distinguished School for this next year and we need to have everyone become an Apple Teacher as a part of this process. (See below the link to click on - Apple Teacher Challenge)
This would be an exceptional honor for our campus and since we have such a strong background with what we have done with lesson design and technologies!!
Click here to go to Thinglink and see the offerings, the Apple Teacher Challenge is the one that I need you to please complete! (you will receive flex hours )
Professional Learning and UbD
I wanted to make sure you all knew about some amazing learning (provided by some of our very own TCE educators) that will be happening as well this summer. These would be wonderful if you can attend as they help to support our continuing needs for UbD at TCE! It is also a great way in which our campus can stay aligned with planning!
If you aren't sure which you need to sign up for, then you can take the survey on Eduphoria where the courses are listed to see which might be the best fit for you!
