Welcome Back

Welcome to the 2016-2017 school year!

Welcome back!! What an amazing start to the new school year. Pancakes, smoothies, coffee (very important), and amazing speakers, including Board President Heather Sutton, Superintendent Mary Kay Going, CSEA President Matt Day, MTA President Paul Mack, and Assistant Superintendent Colette Zea. Good luck with the first day of school. We're so excited to see all the amazing things you are working on this year! 

Here are just a few photos from an inspirational morning.

Moreland in Action!

What an amazing year it has been so far. We have been very busy in Ed Services and wanted to keep everyone up to date on what has been going on.

 Many teachers have been involved in incredible PD days. They include CUE conferences, PBL, and Merit training. Let's not forget the once in a lifetime training with Dr. Kagan that we all participated in! We learned strategies to use in our classrooms and the reasoning behind them.

 Ed Services has also hosted a DELAC parent night on Technology Safety. This included a special presentation from Comcast and several technology classes parents were able to attend. Families learned about Common Sense Media,  setting up a gmail account, and how to find websites in their language.

We also hosted a very successful GATE night for parents. This was an amazing opportunity for parents to learn about state funding, GATE enrichment classes, GATE Parent Night, and advocacy in Moreland School District. Parents were also introduced to the plethora of differentiation strategies that our Moreland teachers use. Parents walked away knowing that GATE is more than a special label, and that GATE kids need all the help they can get.
