2020-21 Tribal, Heritage, and Dual Language Virtual Professional Learning Communities

Join us for virtual professional learning communities (PLCs) to support tribal, heritage, and dual language programs. The PLCs are specific to the type of language program and educator role. Our goals are to share best practices, solve common problems of practice, and build a statewide network of support for our work. Please register for the 2020-21 series (November – June) through pdEnroller and we will send you the Zoom link.
