Communication:
-Share items effectively and in a timely manner. We have google classroom and now I see a Team Drive, I am concerned we will get things in too many places and it will be hard to locate items.

-Consistent message to ALL SPED as staff like diags and IC's will get different information in our meetings.
-Better communication between SPED admin. and other departments within the district

Collaboration:
-We need more resource for HS resource classes, and providing these to a campus.

-Having time for ALL MS and ALL HS IC's separately to meet and discuss hot topics we are currently dealing with, brainstorm with one another about ideas we may have for someone else's issue, use one another as resources with time given to do so that is unscripted.
