Next Steps/New Questions:

I am so excited and proud of the work done in 2007-08.  We are in the process of a wonderful paradigm shift to an inquiry-based program that we piloted and adopted this year.  I believe that the SEPUP curriculum is one of the best available for middle school.  It is going to be interesting to observe the implementation in our schools and beginning with the PD this summer.
