Optional Unique & Inspire Professional Development
We are excited to be able to provide two new curricula for our special education teachers this year. Unique provides a convenient, cloud‑based platform for educators to deliver differentiated, standards‑aligned content enhanced by powerful assessments, data tools, and evidence‑based instructional support. Inspire provides a research- and evidence-based intervention curriculum to supplement the core curriculum. There are two optional trainings available on our September 22 Professional Development Day.
- Unique is for all self-contained classrooms (all grade levels)
- Inspire is for elementary resource classrooms (secondary content to come soon).
Unique Professional Development (all grade levels for self-contained teachers)
- Friday, September 22, 2023 at Valley High School from 1:00 p.m. until 3:30 p.m.
Inspire Professional Development (All elementary resource teachers)
