  • BPS RETELL Fall 2022 Sign Up
    OMME is pleased to offer RETELL courses free for BPS educators! If you need to take the SEI Endorsement course or are interested to take as a PD opportunity, please sign up using this Google form. Please note: if you are a teacher or admin who wants the SEI Endorsement for teachers to renew your teacher license, you need to take the SEI teacher course. Also, per DESE, you can only miss one teacher class and cannot miss an admin course to pass the course. If you have any questions, please contact Margaret Arlauskas at marlauskas@bostonpublicschools.org. In the event there is greater interest than capacity, we will prioritize educators whose current role requires the SEI endorsement. Margaret will confirm your registration. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScf0OqJA31PdvweDxBl_aQTQgm1d8eSTPPbfXNrmtTvHrPaXg/viewform
