 * **Time**
 * 8:00-9:50 || Welcome, Intro, and Review Core Competencies || It was very helpful to hear the TAKS scores and see what areas our students excel/struggle. ||
 * 10:00-10:50 || Academy Webpage and Parent Contact Database - Darren Wilson || This session was very helpful. The parent contact database will be helpful when we need to contact the parents. Also the photo,media sharing avenue will be helpful for teachers that would like to share their students' work. In addition, I finally learned how to edit my teacher info on the Academy homepage. ||
 * 11:00-11:50 || Adaptive Release in Blackboard - John Witter || This session was very helpful in learning how to structure your Blackboard class in a way that will allow you to have more time to instruct. Lessens time used to manage your Blackboard. John Witter is very helpful and resourceful. Thanks, John!! ||
 * 1:00-1:50 || Parent Involvement Planning - Robbin Wall || This was a very interactive class. I enjoyed brainstorming with the other class members. One of the other things that I think we can do is be sure to send out a written newsletter that can inform parents about past and future goings-on. A lot of our parents do not have the internet and can not go online and see any announcements. ||
