We\u2019re asking folks to consider having their site observed in October or November, so that December is less crazy. 2) We\u2019re going to be hosting three mini-conferences in the spring, so stay tuned for dates. 3) We\u2019re planning to have a Methods trainer come out and train every organization once, so your team should think about what YPQ or SEL Methods workshop would be most useful. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stay tuned, more info will come!
