Since PSU will be online for fall and they are uncertain about winter and spring, her plan is to offer the MIL courses online all year in a combination of synchronous and asynchronous format. This is wonderful for us, since the Mathematics Instructional Leader program has been primarily available only in person in the valley making it difficult for us to participate. You would be able to use district tuition reimbursement dollars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Best regards,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kerry<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kerry Morton<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Learning Kits<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Math<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Based on a consensus of feedback it now sounds like you would rather go with Bridges kits rather than make our own EDM kits.&nbsp;
