The links below will provide you with support materials that may be helpful and better prepare you for the three-day paraprofessional academies Region 15 has implemented. The study guides ARE NOT mandatory reading but have been provided solely to respond to overwhelming requests from districts within Region 15. The material contained in each guide will be discussed during the three day training.
Also, we would like to remind all participants to please call Pam Tingle at 325.658.6571x2151 if you are unable to attend the academy for which you have registered. And finally, if you miss the first day, you will not be able to attend the remaining days of the academy.
