In each session, you’ll learn about:

the industry they work in
what they do on a day-to-day basis
and the education and training they needed to enter that field

Most importantly, there will also be lots of time to answer your questions!

KDI Pilot Implementation Outcomes

FLAGSTAFF May 24, 2019. Linda Harbottle

The LAUNCH Flagstaff Multi-LEA Collaborative is concluding its one year pilot of the Kindergarten Developmental Inventory (KDI) for the 2018-19 school year. The goal of the collaborative team was twofold – (1) to determine the value of the KDI as both an assessment and a teaching tool to support effective teaching and learning, and (2) as a valid and reliable tool for evaluating success in a consistent manner across all schools in our community. The collaborative team initially was comprised of the Flagstaff Unified School District (FUSD) and two Flagstaff charter schools – Mountain School and PEAK School.
