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!"!
• "I am absolutely inspired...I am more prepared to teach my students in the fall."
• "Each time I join the sessions, I come away with new knowledge, insights and ideas how to use this information with my students."

We have a full slate of professional development opportunities this week for teachers with many new workshops added for this next 6 week cycle. Each will help you earn credit towards NGPF Academy.
