New School Year

Welcome to the NFTE central valley network of teachers. I apologize for not making the first meeting, but evidently traveling this summer had an affect on my return. I will be back in action Monday. It is my understanding that many of you had the opportunity to take a look at the site and possibly had a chance to view the features of this site. For those that do not know me, my name is Verles Page and I am the Technology Director for Agape Inc. charter schools (W.E.B. DuBois and Carter G. Woodson). This will be my fourth year with NFTE and it's an amazing program. With this site, we can share best practices, create online meetings and have guest speakers. If you would like anything added to this site, please feel free to let me know. My office number is 559 230-3007 and my email is vpage@agapecorp.com or mrpage1775@gmail.com. You can also contact AJ or Janelle if you need any additional assistance pertaining to the course.

Take a moment to share some best practices from the senior teachers that have taught the course and expectations from the newer teachers who are about to embark on teaching the course. Discuss challenges that you have had and solutions you have found. I will continue to monitor and moderate discussions throughout the year in addition to updating this site with new tools and NFTE information as it comes. I look forward to an outstanding year. Thank you.

Sincerely,

Verles Page
Technology Director
Agape Inc.
