I am pleased to say that I work in a district with some success in incubating innovation. We locally help to fund innovation with a fantastic “Apple Seed” grant program for creative projects.

On a district wide level, our administrators in charge of curriculum & instruction are working hard to implement constructivist-leaning instruction and content-specific best practices.
