Dear CRA members,

We have upcoming FREE events! Interested?

We are committed to supporting literacy educators across the state during this time of distance learning. As we enter the last few weeks of school, we want to offer free professional development to enhance and refine your practices. We want to be responsive to your current needs, so please consider attending one of these informative presentations featuring experts across the state.

These presentations will all be held via Zoom. More information will be forthcoming regarding registration and how to join the events.

Once again, this is FREE, and open to both CRA members and non-members alike, as we work to give back to our education community! Please share with interested colleagues.
