PURPOSE
There is a seismic shift happening throughout Region 10. Schools are transforming their teaching and learning practices to better address the learning needs of today’s student. It is our belief, that in order to support this necessary transformation, R10 must redesign how professional learning is delivered and model relevant, innovative approaches in the areas of teaching, learning and leadership.
