 Accreditation and Progress Forms Due
The deadline for forms is May 15 and can be found on the Schools page of the District Resources website. Forms are to be signed by your Board Chair. Remember, new this year, the progress form for non-accredited schools must be completed. Thanks to our new team on the District Accreditation Commission: Brian B., Kathy Y., Bill Z. and Dean F.
 Early Childhood Leadership
The NWD is planning a leadership network for our early childhood leaders. Leadership academies and regional learning communities will be the avenue for encouraging, networking and equipping these leaders for service in their churches and schools. Watch for more.
 Trego
Invite your Early Childhood Director and your Admissions Counselor! Registration materials can be found on the NWD website under congregations/workshops: http://www.nwdlcms.org/uploads/Trego_Registration_2014.pdf  
 Danielson Framework
This framework is the core of how WI schools are evaluating teachers. Could it change how you mentor and develop teacher leaders? http://danielsongroup.org/userfiles/files/downloads/2013EvaluationInstrument.pdf
 Talking Standards with Stakeholders
A fellow Ed Exec wrote a letter of response to an angry community member regarding CCSS. I made some changes and created a letter you can use in a parent newsletter or with others: http://nwdlcms.org/Schools.html under Other Resources, titled Sample Letter Regarding Standards.
