<div>Hello, Ohio mathematics leaders:<br>
<br>
I hope the school year has started well for each of you. OCTM is excited to announce a professional event for school teams (or individuals) on
<b>Saturday, October 16 in Akron</b> to help school leaders and teachers to <b>prepare for the transition to the Common Core State Standards in mathematics</b>. This event will be
<b>led by OCTM facilitators in partnership with the mathematics consultants from the Ohio Department of Education</b>, so teachers and administrators who attend will have access to a great deal of expertise as they work to plan for their transition to the new
standards. We are pleased to be able to provide this level of support for a very low registration cost, thanks in part to Texas Instruments, a co-sponsor. (This is not a sales event -- the focus is the new standards.)<br>
<br>
Please forward the attached flier to your colleagues who are curriculum leaders, and we encourage schools to send multiple teams where possible. Again, individuals are welcome to attend as well. I also hope that many of you will be able to attend!<br>
<br>
I am happy to answer any questions about this event. Thank you for supporting mathematics education in your region!<br>
<br>
Kim Yoak<br>
President, OCTM<br>
