The day began with Welcome Back messages from the superintendent, members of the district administrative staff, Board of Education Vice President Deborah Weiss, and ETA President Garrett Chesnoff. In addition, guest speaker Gian Paul Gonzalez delivered a powerful message of what it means to our students when we are "All In." His message was well received and set the stage for the rest of the day's professional development sessions.
