CESA 8's Jenny Ambrosius recently led a Project-Based Learning Assessments and Rubric Workshop that facilitated the district's design of project learning plans and assessment maps. Jenny always does a great job, but on this occasion, she was exceptional as she led this work on a day when the building lost internet service, and we all know how important the internet is in our world.

CESA 8 is the site for S.M.A.R.T. training this week. S.M.A.R.T. training is a multi-sensory approach to learning designed to develop and enhance the physiological and neurological readiness skills students need to succeed in school. With these readiness skills in place, students have the necessary tools to learn to read, write, and receive information in the classroom. Thank you, Amber Molle, from the Pulaski School District, for facilitating this work!
