Words from a principal… My two experienced third grade teachers (who have been around and will not sugar coat) that went to the Read to Achieve training told me today that it was the best training they had been to in all their years. They were down right giddy about it today. I AM EXTREMELY IMPRESSED! Thank you - RB
