In his letter to the field about NCLB and the Iowa Core, Kevin Fangman, Interim Director of the Department of Education, described professional development for the Iowa Core that will offered through AEAs. (At the time of this publication, we anticipated this letter would be sent on Friday, September 10.)
Click here to find a summary of the services that are available to support the Iowa Core through Heartland AEA. This document includes more than the professional development described in the letter. Services Heartland provides to support the core are listed in three categories.
1) Support for the continuous improvement process to plan and implement the Iowa Core
2) Professional Learning
3) Resources
The person to contact is identified as well as the Heartland staff members who may be providing the services. Please do not hesitate to contact your Partnership Director if you are in need of support for implementation of your Iowa Core plan.
