We gave the SDE the dates that we had blocked for Summer Institute some time ago; however, you can see College Board has something scheduled the same week. A counselor has asked if anyone knows or has attended any of these in the past and would like to shed some light on what it entails. Please reply to this email if you have anything regarding these trainings.

Art Schofield will be the RAO at our Summer Institute. For those of you who do not know Art, he is very knowledgeable and very honest; he will tell it to you straight and he will give you the same answer every time. He definitely knows his stuff! Please think about questions you have that you would like answered and email those to me and I will forward those on to Art. He will have those questions answered and whatever else you come up with at Summer Institute. There is not a dumb question, so ask away. I will send out another reminder in June using the summer address that you gave to us when you registered as a reminder again about the questions you have and information regarding Summer Institute. Thank you. Have a wonderful, restful Memorial Day weekend!
