We have a full slate of LIVE professional development opportunities this week for teachers!

Here's what teachers are saying about our Virtual PDs:

• "Honestly, these sessions have all been amazing! I have used so much due to the PDs!"!
• "Each time I join the sessions, I come away with new knowledge, insights, and ideas on how to use this information with my students."
• "I liked the facilitator modeling ways to teach virtually as well as suggestions from other motivated teachers!"

Are your students asking about what’s happening with Gamestop? If so, be sure to join Tim and Yanely on Monday for their session, What’s Up With Gamestop?

Certification Course registrations are currently open! Find out more about our course offerings here.
