Facilitated by Theresa Gray  “What year are you preparing your students for?” Heidi Hayes Jacobs contends that we need to overhaul, update and inject life into our curriculum and dramatically change what our schools look like to match the times in which we live. This online course will allow area administrators an opportunity to investigate the state of their schools and prepare a plan for the future.
