“I look forward to participating in the regional work at the NWESD with enthusiasm. Every opportunity provides me with deeper understanding of how to create enrichment in my classroom as well as my building. From my own experiences over the last two years, I have seen a greater interest in vertical alignment and focus on close reading in the district.”
