RSP Virtual Cohort

A table with two columns labeled 'Topic' and 'Date,' listing four items: 'Setting Up For Success' on August 7th, 'First 30 Day Check-In' on October 2nd, 'Planning for 2nd Semester' on January 8th, and 'Finishing Strong' on April 30th.

The RSP Virtual Cohort is a supportive community designed for educators to collaboratively navigate the complexities of the RSPs, whether or not their district utilizes the RSP Fast Tracking Tool. Our cohort is a hub for guidance, collaboration, and ongoing support. Our virtual space provides a platform to connect with like-minded peers, share insights, and access valuable resources. We will group cohorts by the assessment type their district is using (i-Ready, STAR, etc.).
