Welcome to the Summit Blog! I am Deidre Meyer, the new Curriculum Director for Lander Schools. My experience includes 20-plus years in education as a classroom teacher, instructional coach, and PK-8 principal. I am excited to support our building leadership and staff in academic and social-emotional curriculum development, collaborate in the implementation of best-practices instruction, and reflect upon assessments in this amazing professional learning community.
The Wyoming Department of Education requires teachers of classroom-based virtual education courses to complete one, seven-hour Professional Teaching Standards Board (PTSB) approved workshop. In preparation for the start of school and to support the FCSD 1 curriculum, the district leaders are collaborating on staff professional development focused primarily on virtual education methods. Professional development will be provided for all staff with continuing training throughout the 2020-2021 school year.
