Synopsis

Duane and Cole return from a long summer vacation and discuss how our P-2 conferences are going. This is the conference series we designed specifically for pre-school teachers up through Grade 2 teachers. Spoiler alert: It is going GREAT!!! Then we shift to talking about the impending textbook adoptions that school districts throughout California will be doing. The choice is so important and we need to do a great job supporting teachers to make a great decision. Join us in this conversation.
