FMSD Professional Development Day: Teachers and staff began Term 2 with greetings from Superintendent Nelson, inspiring everyone to remember the importance of providing a quality education to the students who attend Forest Municipal School District. Teachers and staff also participated in sessions on topics that included, but were not limited to, Social and Emotional Learning (SEL), Audio Enhancement, Strengthening Instructional Practices, Diving Into Data, and Classroom Management. Robert John Meehan says, "The most valuable resource that all teachers have is each other. Without collaboration our growth is limited to our own perspectives." FMSD is learning and growing together!
