Time for WASL Prep

Now high school students can use ALP Math to prep for the WASL. (And middle school students can continue to use it as well.) In making this addition, ALP has also been redesigned. Take a look: http://www.learningcommons.org/educators/tr/alps/

We also have a number of other WASL prep resources: http://www.learningcommons.org/wasl/

Train to Train Others

Our Train the Trainer Workshop is just around the corner. This is a wonderful opportunity to increase your school’s benefits from DLC resources. The workshop will take place on Jan. 28-29, right before the OSPI Conference. For more information, click below. To register, email Maile at mhadley@learningcommons.org.

Spring Semester Has Begun

Students can still sign up for spring courses. And if your school hasn’t used up your Course Credit Funds (CCFs), now’s a good time. Check with your school’s on-site DLC Registrar to see if you have any CCFs left, or contact Leslie at the DLC: lstpierr@learningcommons.org.

Use the LSI for IEPs and Get a “Whoa!” Out of Your Students
