Welcoming Our New MATI Apprentices

We were delighted to welcome the 2009-2010 cohort of the Mid-Atlantic Teacher Institute, which includes two Norwood alumnae, at a reception attended by Norwood faculty and staff and George Washington University MATI professors. The new apprentices are excited about their year of graduate studies, which begins with a few summer courses and a four-week placement in a Montgomery County Public School summer program.
