Many of you have been asking about Honors Courses this year and moving forward. We have a plan developed, but have been waiting on final word from NC DPI about the Implementation process. Last week we received information that will allow us to move forward. We will be working with principals, and teachers in each subject area and from each school to develop our new Honors guides. I will be posting more information soon, but be especially on the lookout after the April 16th overview webinar.
Here is the message from DPI including the wiki where you can see the DPI schedule as well as the links to register for any of the webinars.
