We are just starting the awards ceremony at the Joint Convention. Great kickoff with Scarlett Lewis andChoose Love this morning followed by a panel discussion on Medical Marijuana and home school participation. Many great sessions to attend!
The DOE / SASD mentoring program is underway in Sioux Falls leading up to the Joint Convention. We have 16 new administrators taking part this year along with their veteran mentors. Our goal is to support them and make sure they get off to a good start. We need them all!
