The Teacher Quality Enhancement Grant will have a two-day training/meeting for all teams, chairs, etc. It is extremely important that each team member and chair attend BOTH days. With Sustainability Training on Day 1, the 5th, followed by work in your teams to Devise a Plan on Day 2, the 6th, we need the participation of each and every person to sustain the work of your team after the grant ends. That is why we are paying expenses and a stipend to those who attend both days and expenses only for those attending one of the two days.
