We will have several required sessions for EL Coordinators, Homeless Coordinators, School Attendance Officers, and 21st CCLC Program Directors/Coordinators. We also recommend family and community engagement liaisons, foster care coordinators, JDCs, and other stakeholders involved in providing students instructional and support services.
