Welcome to the new school year, which I think we can label as one of the most challenging beginnings ever! We want to offer our sincere thanks for all the work you are doing with our students, and we are here to support you however we can.
Whether it be tips for integrating PBS LearningMedia into your classroom, upcoming professional development opportunities, or content for sharing with your students, we look forward to continuing to support our educators, students, families, and schools. Please reach out to Cheryl Gerken if you would like to schedule a virtual PBS LearningMedia workshop for your school site.
