The future of education is in great hands!

This morning, we welcomed a fantastic group of future educators from Illinois State University to the ROE #17 office! These ISU Ed Birds are part of the Secondary Professional Development School (PDS) Program.

Regional Superintendent Molly Allen kicked off the morning with a warm welcome to the profession and an overview of how ROE #17 supports our regional schools. To wrap up, Dr. Lindsey Jensen delivered an honest, uplifting, and inspiring presentation on the power of teaching.

Thank you for visiting us, Ed Birds - we can't wait to see the incredible impact you'll make in the classroom! Redbird Proud!

It was a wonderful morning at Illinois State University as we welcomed more than 200 educators and administrators from DeWitt, Livingston, Logan, and McLean counties for our annual Back to School Breakfast!

Regional Superintendent Molly Allen kicked things off with a warm welcome to the new school year, complete with breakfast and great conversation. Between all the "good to see yous" and welcome-back hugs, our Keynote Speaker Aimee Beam had everyone inspired with her JAM method and 10 rules for a great year ahead.

New this year, ROE #17 programs hosted touch-point presentations to highlight what we offer and how we can support our districts, from alternative learning and licensure to tiered support and beyond. Regional Office of Education #17 is here and ready to help all year long!

Regional Superintendent Molly Allen and the entire ROE #17 team wish all of our regional educators and administrators an amazing school year ahead. Your dedication doesn't go unnoticed, and we're honored to celebrate you!
