Testimonials

Hear from our previous attendees… 

Coming from an all elementary teaching and support background to leadership in the middle school, and now undertaking the development of a master schedule, this training was invaluable. Having a step by step process to follow and what to think about allows a starting point to the process. Thank you!

This workshop helped me by allowing me to view the master schedule as a whole and as individual moving parts that need to work in sync to provide students and teachers the best opportunity to learn and teach.
