"This was very helpful. It was great to be away from our district to work without interruptions. We were able to identify our focus area(s) and hypothesize way to impact them. We still need to identify a subgroup for our annual improvement goal. This retreat gave us a good foundation for further work back in the district."

"As a parent, I have a greater appreciation for the procedures used to determine knowledge level and comparisons between classes. It's interesting seeing trends and developing strategies to encourage an upward trend. Liked the amount of team time for our large group."
