The Capitol Area R-TAC is looking forward to supporting your planning and implementation of Community Schools. We are offering professional learning throughout the 2024-25 year, starting with foundational courses and continuing with series for different interests and experience levels. These virtual and in-person offerings will be highly interactive, with opportunities for deeper connections via job-alike, interest and needs-specific collaborative experiences. We will be adding additional professional learning throughout the year.
Capitol Area R-TAC Office Hours
The Capitol Area R-TAC Team will be hosting office hours to support the planning and implementation of community schools on Fridays from 10:00 am - 11:00 am. We will be creating a safe and supportive space where our team will be available to answer questions, provide transformational assistance, and build deeper collaborative connections with educators and leaders throughout our region. We invite you to sign up for office hours as needed and once we receive your request we will send a confirmation email and Zoom meeting information. We look forward to partnering with you!
