Long Beach Paraeducator Partnership Program Website

Hi, My name is Lisa and I've created a website for paraeducators in the grant program offered through LBUSD. Anyone interesting in checking out the website can view it at : http:www.geocities.com/grantprogram It's a resource for paraeducators who are going through our grant program but perhaps we can expand it into something more. :D I hope you will come and take a look at it and offer suggestions! Lisa :)

Getting started

I am interested in getting the PTTP to my school district (Keppel Union School District in Pearblossom, CA). No one I have spoken to has knowledge of what this is and I know very little. Would you please advise what I need to do to get the necessary information to the right people in my district. Thank you! :?[/u]
