Training Opportunities Designed for Charter Schools about the New Colorado Growth Model
The Colorado League of Charter Schools is collaborating with the Colorado Department of Education (CDE) to help schools become familiar with the new Colorado Growth Model, which will become the "cornerstone" of the state's educational accountability system. The League is offering a number of free regional training sessions for member charter schools during the upcoming summer months that are well-suited for school principals, board members, data leaders, teachers and others who want to get up-to-speed about the new growth model before the beginning of the 2008-09 school year.
Want to learn more? Attend an upcoming training session.
If you are interested in attending one of the scheduled trainings (listed below), please RSVP to Tisha Bouwmeester via email at tbouwmeester@coloradoleague.org. Each session will last approximately two hours, and space is limited.
