From Kristie Kauerz, Director of the National P-3 Center at the University of Washington. Please let me know if anyone would be interested in organizing a Massachusetts delegation.
Applications are now open for the October 27-30, 2014 team-based National P-3 Institute. This four-day professional education institute is focused on implementation and evaluation of comprehensive P-3 approaches and is hosted by the University of Washington, College of Education’s National P-3 Center. The event will take place in Seattle, WA.

The Institute will provide participating teams with opportunity to hear from researchers, expert-practitioners, and others about promising approaches to create greater alignment and coherence across the pre-school through 3rd grade continuum. Equally important, teams will be provided time and innovative tools to refine and strengthen their own locally-based strategic P-3 plans.
As in the past, this Institute is designed for attendance by teams of leaders who are actively working together on a geographically defined P-3 approach (district, community, or state level).
Applications are due by July 15, 2014. Details and the application form can be found here:
