The staff meeting this week will have two speakers from our school district office. Everybody is invited, not just certified staff. One speaker will be Mr. Gemar. He will speak for a few minutes about what CBRS and BI services are, similarities and differences. Our school superintendent will speak for the majority of the meeting. He will be sharing and discussing the school district strategic plan. Just as our school Title 1 plan guides direction for our school, the district strategic plan guides our school district.

This article mentions statistics, civics, and looking for application in real situations where students can apply skills:
