Constant Contact for Weekly Update  
Starting this week I will be sending the weekly update communication from a new email platform called Constant Contact.  For this week I will be testing a send with Constant Contact and also sending the email as I have normally.  Please let me know if you do not receive the email through Constant Contact.  Please check all your folders including Junk and let me know if the Constant Contact email ends up in that folder.

 

Professional Development Day Task Force Participants Wanted
Professional Development Day is on Friday, February 11^th. Just like last year the Early Learning tract will feature several sessions focused entirely on Early Learning topics geared toward you and your staff (and STARS eligible for licensed programs).  If you are interested in being a part of the planning task force please reach out to me by next Monday, October 18th.  Last year the time commitment for the planning team consisted of 3-4 meetings that were an hour in length.  Thank you and looking forward to an awesome day of learning.
