The staff will be K-12. The high school has done limited R4, the MS even less, and the elementary was first introduced to R4 at a conference inservice this year. The elementary and about half the MS are well versed in CRISS, the HS and rest of the MS do it grudgingly. We are in the third year and in some cases we have students in the MS and HS that are better versed in using CRISS than some teachers. We have 4 new teachers that are not trained but are working with it in limited success. We have a district planning team for ICC learning with the AEA, so the rest of the staff is deep in the dark of ICC and fearing it is going to change their lives forever. Most of the elem/ms may be more comfortable with ideas of using CRISS to move students through the R4 than the high school because we are still some sit and git there. Anything we can do to show that many of the things we are doing with criss will fit in with the R4 and ICC will be helpful.
