ADE Engagement Matters: Using the Family and Community Engagement Framework and Toolkit to Improve Parent and Family Engagement Plans has a full house today at Dawson!





Instructional Facilitators Carrie Barber and Michelle Moore with Malvern School District recently welcomed Annette Brown, Science Specialist at Dawson Education Cooperative as part of the Professional Learning Community of second grade teachers as they continue to learn together through collective inquiry. The group is spending time to closely examine Next Generation Science Standards and determine effective grouping of performance expectations for their grade level and map out a sequence of learning for the school year. Through the PLC process, teachers have had the opportunity to discuss the "how" and "why" of learning and assessment.





We have a new hashtag for the Summer! Remember to follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram!


What a great few days of SIOP training! Lake Hamilton teachers are planning with intention to make content comprehensible.




Dawson will be closed for Good Friday. Have a safe weekend!
