Special thanks to our staff presenters:

Amy Hoekstra
Natalie James
Rachel Mainero
Shelley Moore
Nick Ontiveros

Jen Steffes
The focus of our Professional Development Day was showing the 8 Cultural Forces in action as well as modeling how routines can be linked together for a more effective lesson. The presenters made a point to identify the type of thinking that they wanted their students to do and highlighted different places in their lesson where they focused on a particular cultural force. 


Staff rotated through five sessions, had follow-up discussion in their CIA teams, and then filled out an exit slip that pertained to the 8 Cultural Forces.  The evaluation of the day was exceptionally positive.
