HV RBERN Update

Happy Teacher Appreciation Week!

In order to continue to be responsive, the Hudson Valley Regional Bilingual Education Resource Network (HV RBERN) is gathering information about how schools are planning for the future. We are requesting your feedback; please complete this survey to inform our work. Our intent is to gauge how the HV RBERN can better support you in your work with ELLs. We also encourage you to forward this survey to other educators in your district.
