Common Core forum offers local insight

Posted

The Bristol Warren Education Foundation and the Bristol Warren Regional School District will be hosting a community forum series throughout this school year. The kickoff to the series is a forum on the Common Core State Standards, a topic that has been debated at the national and state levels. The district and BWEF will be bringing this subject home by providing community members a view of the implementation of these standards at our local level, Common Core State Standards, BW Style.

Please join the BWRSD and the BWEF for this free, informative and interactive community forum on Oct. 24 at 6:30 p.m. in the library of the Mt. Hope High School.

A team of Bristol Warren educators will present the classroom view of the implementation the Common Core State Standards and will share with the public their research, preparation and practice. Local educators will be joined by Mary Ann Snider and Phyllis Lynch from the RI Department of Education, as well as educator ambassadors, Tracy LaFreniere and Jaime Crowley. This team will provide a broader view of implementation by providing a state and national context.
