Fall In-Service - Virtual or Postpone?
Administrators - please respond to this survey by Thursday, July 2 at 4:00 PM - to share your district's preference for our upcoming In-Service on August 17, 2020. It was also emailed to all Admin.
The GTCC is dedicated to meeting our member schools' needs, while providing quality professional development. Due to our current circumstances across the state of Montana, our In-Service will be VIRTUAL, as long as we have enough interest.
9:00 AM - 3:00 PM with a lunch break from 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM
6 OPI Renewal Units
Linda Jordan, National Keynote Speaker, will be adapting her presentation to meet our current needs in education with remote & distance learning, hybrid models for teaching, best practices; and will still speak on our focus topic of teacher wellness & self-care. She will also be allowing for a large percentage of our time to be spent in collaboration and PLC-model breakout groups. This will not be a 6 hour "sit & get"!!
New cost will be:
$10 (per person) for member attendees
$20 (per person for non-member attendees
We are encouraging all schools to gather together in-person, to attend this virtual in-service, in order to collaborate, discuss, and build relationships as a team. We will have gift baskets for the schools with the most school spirit/school colors!! Those that have already registered will have the option to cancel registration or stay registered for our virtual in-service.
