Thank you, Charissa Duncanson and Cassie Stephens!

This week, I wanted to thank you all for being so open to learning new things together, and collaborating to develop arts tasks for our students.  I will use this week's platform to share all of the GREAT that came from Friday's PD work.

Drum roll, please...
