Elementary staff focused on topics related to math vocabulary, PBIS structure, data review, and strategies to support advanced learners. Secondary staff participated in the national training around Youth Mental Health First Aid. Grant Wood AEA staff supported a variety of sessions held throughout the district. Teacher Leaders also met to collaborate around leadership topics related to student achievement. It was a full day focused on continuous improvement for adults in Bobcat Country!
