CFN 107 is committed to make sure that everyone one of our schools is working towards accomplishing the task of unpacking the New Common Core State Standards. To this end, we have comprised a series of professional development workshops and support for our schools:
Summer 2010: Common Core State Standards Summer Institute
Principals and faculty had a opportunity to attend a 2 day institute at Beacon High School where they were exposed to the new Common Core State Standards that New York along with 47 other states has adopted. Below are the supporting documents from the institute.
