Alameda's TAG meeting will be this Wednesday, 10/22, from 6 to 7:30 p.m. in the Library. Free childcare will be provided by Ms. Bailey in Room 106. Come with questions about identification and TAG services.
Christy Caton, our TAG coordinator, says it will be "a forum for parents who are curious about the TAG program," as well as a chance for parents of identified TAG students to "get clarification about processes and ask questions." Mr. Lurie and Mrs. VanDerWolf will be there to answer questions.
Unfortunately, our new TAG TOSA (teacher on special assignment) isn't available to attend Alameda's meeting. However, Ms. Caton will be attending a TAG Coordinators' meeting later this week and will take questions or concerns from parents to that meeting. Ms. Caton also reports that the new TAG technology specialist will be teaching tech tools during the coordinators' monthly meetings. She says, "I will be providing TAG professional development to our staff, and will pass along any tech tips and tools as I get them."
As a reminder, the deadline for TAG student nominations is Monday November 3. Pick up a form from your teacher, the TAG bulletin board in the main hall, or from this link on the PPS website. Families will be notified of the testing schedule one or two weeks in advance. Currently, Alameda testing is scheduled for January.
