SERC and the Connecticut State Department of Education are entering the fourth year of professional learning to support CT educators in implementing the African American/Black and Puerto Rican/Latino Course of Studies.
With educator and stakeholder feedback, we continue to work on assessing our support and services. To this end, we are redesigning the professional learning format to provide greater access and more varied opportunities to engage with course content that will benefit all students. These changes include incorporating the content of our Summer Institute as part of the professional learning starting in September.
We invite interested stakeholders to collaborate with us, including colleges, universities, and state and regional organizations. Please contact a member of the CSDE/SERC Project Team by August 1st with any interest. We look forward to partnering with you!
