"Follow-up sessions with Lisa Carter on October 8th and 9th Postponed
We are postponing the October follow-up sessions with Lisa Carter to January 14th and 15th. We have received many requests from you asking us to reschedule the October sessions due to incredibly tight schedules and heavy workloads, and this has been made evident by cancelled reservations and requests to invite Lisa back later in the school year. We know that there is great interest in this topic and we want to accommodate as many of you as we possibly can, as does Lisa Carter, which is why we think it would be best to reschedule the sessions to January. During Lisa's visit in January, we will arrange to set up dates for the second series of follow-up sessions in the Spring.
We appreciate your understanding and apologize for any inconvenience caused by these changes. As a prelude to her follow-up sessions in January, you may want to have a look at her new book, "Five Big Ideas: Leading Total Instructional Alignment", at
