Good afternoon, North Texas colleagues! I look forward to seeing many of you in Plano ISD on Friday, but wanted to share that Celina ISD is hosting an open enrollment opportunity for our Tips and Tools for Professional Learning on May 29. I know many of you have recently brought Tips and Tools to your districts, but if you have individuals who have not yet been trained, this can be an opportunity for them! Cost is $239 per seat and space is limited. Please share with those who may be interested. Registration details can be found at this link: http://Home | Tips and Tools for Professional Learning 1 $239
