Happy New Year and Welcome Back!



I pray you had a blessed holiday with family and friends. I was constantly reminded during the holiday of how blessed we are here at Trinity and what a special place this is to educate children. Thank you for all you do each day to make it such a special place academically and spiritually.

Along with a new year comes new learning opportunities for our faculty! A big thank you to our professional development committee for their continued hard work for these plans for 2012!

Mark Your Calendars!

Here is a schedule of the professional development opportunities that are available during second semester. Most dates are pretty solid, but the dates are subject to change should a conflict arise. We are offering most presentations twice - once in the morning and once in the afternoon - to make sure all who want to come can do so. Remember, you get CEUs for attending. If you find that there is something else you need particular help with, please let us know or contact your technology integrationist - Becky, Karen, or Frank.

Also, please know that more professional development will be on offer this summer, but not necessarily the same presentations. So now is the time to attend if you want to learn about these things! Donna will send out a sign-up sheet as we get closer to each date so we know how many will be attending each session.
