Congratulations to our Principal, Kevin Dick, on his recent graduation from The Learning Forward Professional Development Academy which he has been working on since 2019.
The Learning Forward Academy is an extended and profound learning experience that immerses members in a model of inquiry- and problem-based learning. Academy members work collaboratively to gain knowledge to solve significant student learning problems in their schools, districts, or organizations.
Principal D spent his class time working on a project related to enhancing the reading and literacy performance of our students at Pettigrew.
We are proud of our Principal and his achievement, to improve learning for all students at Pettigrew!
