We have a full slate of LIVE professional development opportunities this week for teachers!

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!"!
• "Each time I join the sessions, I come away with new knowledge, insights, and ideas on how to use this information with my students."
• "I liked the facilitator modeling ways to teach virtually as well as suggestions from other motivated teachers!"

Teachers have been loving Tori’s session, The History of Women in Finance. Be sure to catch her session on Tuesday!
