Thank you to Jenny Ponzuric for a successful and well-attended workshop on “Explaining Eligibility: The Why Behind the Decision.” Jenny made a complicated topic feel easy to understand and reminded us how important it is to clearly explain the “why” behind every decision we make for students and families. We’re excited to bring what we learned back to our teams!
