Tift County Schools

📝 On September 3rd, our amazing Kindergarten through 5th-grade teachers participated in an 'Into Reading' training as part of their professional development day. This training is a crucial step in rolling out our new ELA core resource, ensuring our educators are equipped with the best tools to enhance student learning. 📚 The journey began in May with an introduction to the online platform and a "sneak peek" of the core resources. Since then, our teachers have engaged in “Getting Started” sessions and ongoing training within each elementary school. They'll continue to receive extensive support and training throughout the year. We are so proud of our dedicated teachers who work tirelessly to provide the best education for our students! 💙 #4theT
