Listed below are the goals approved on for the 2008 - 09 school year:

  1. Research and establish an "Innovation Institute" to assist educators in developing instructional strategies to better prepare students for the 21st Century Global Society.

  3. Establish and implement initiatives for the IU and districts to meet the staff development requirements for paraprofessionals mandated by new Chapter 14 Regulations.
  4. Continue to provide Act 1 information for school districts, as they need the data. Continue to manage within the parameters of act 1 in all IU programs.
