Author and consultant Chris Jakicic, Ed.D., came to Crestline Elementary School in June to lead teacher workshops on understanding the role of essential standards and designing assessments to measure the standards and guide instruction.
She met separately with the kindergarten to third grade teachers and the fourth to sixth grade teachers.
The Crestline PTO provided the funds for the speaker, and lunch and stipends for the teachers. Principal Laurie King said that Jakicic was so effective that CES hopes to have her back on Jan. 5 to continue working with the teachers on designing effective assessments.
