The theme of Professional Learning day (AKA FLEX) will be Working Together for Student Equity and your participation will be imperative as we discuss strategies to address the needs of our most vulnerable students and develop strategies to close the achievement gap. Although there are many ways to address equity, the campus has decided to focus on our students’ experiences from a race and ethnicity perspective.
