We're still buzzing from our "Special Ops Boot Camp" professional development sessions held July 15-18! Our dedicated educators dove deep into best practices and strategies to better support ALL students.

Sessions covered crucial topics including:

Effective strategies for our English as a Second Language (ESL) learners 🌎
Tailored approaches for students with Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) 🧠
Navigating and addressing challenging behaviors in the classroom 💪

Thank you to all our incredible teachers for your commitment to continuous learning and for making this boot camp a huge success! We're excited to see these new skills in action as we prepare for a fantastic school year!
