Mid-Del Leadership in Action!

We’re proud of Heather Young, Director of Personnel, for partnering with the Oklahoma Association of School Business Officials this week! Heather spent two days working with the School Business Academy Level III group, sharing her expertise on State Department of Education Personnel Reporting and best practices for recruiting, hiring, and contracting certified and non-certified staff.

We love seeing our Mid-Del leaders share their knowledge and help develop the next generation of public school professionals!

It’s time for Wednesday Wisdom!

This week, we asked the Roadrunners in Ms. Melton’s class at Ridgecrest Elementary one very important question:

From coloring to friends and all the fun in between, these little Roadrunners definitely know what makes school a great place to be!

Great job, Roadrunners, for sharing this week’s Wednesday Wisdom!
