Welcome Week: January 18-24
This is our Welcome Week as we gear up for the start of the project next week! This week you will meet your Goals Project team facilitator and your class Global Goal. We recommend waiting until Week 1 to tell your students the class Global Goal, but we wanted to make sure you knew in advance.
As always, please check in on the www.goalsproject.org and the #GoalsProject hashtag for news and updates.
