AASA-National Conference on Education

Next week, the AASA National Conference on Education attendees can hear a presentation on the HAPIT tool utilized by MCPS.
HERE is a Power Point presentation on the use of HAPIT in MCPS that must have been used at another conference.

Frank Stetson is listed as the speaker at the conference on February 17, 2012. But didn't he retire from MCPS last year?

Why wouldn't a current employee do the presentation? (The brochure does say speakers and sessions are subject to change. Is a different MCPS employee going instead?)

A unique technology tool, HAPIT (Honors/AP Identification Tool), was designed to identify students who have the capability, interest and motivation to participate in rigorous courses. HAPIT is based on PSAT results and other relevant student information.

Habemus Papam!

Well, not quite.  However based on our research, we have found three people that could be new superintendent candidates: Heath Morrison, Frank Stetson, and Gregory Thornton.

The secret 'Community Committee' has it appears almost or has completed their interviews.
