CLASP Professional Development

Through CLASP this year, districts in Massachusetts have two exciting channels for sharing and developing standards-based curriculum.

Regional CLASP Working Groups
A CLASP Working Group is a regional group of districts actively engaged in standards-based curriculum development and committed to making a shift in practice. Each district in a Working Group has access to 32 Working Group professional development events hosted across the state, even those outside the immediate region of the district. Print out the registration form and join the Working Group in your region now!

December 6, 2001 Statewide Curriculum Conference
The theme of this year's conference is Standards-based Assessment: What Can We Learn from Each Other?. Packed with experts from the field of assessment, the exciting agenda addresses critical issues districts are facing right now:

• designing district-wide assessments;
• developing standards-based report cards;
• communicating with parents about standards and standards-based assessments;
• assessing understanding; and
• leading improvement in standards-based assessment as a principal.
  

Print out a registration form and send it in to reserve your space! Registration deadline is November 9, 2001. We are sorry, but there will be absolutely no on-site registration allowed on the day of the conference. All participants must pre-register.
