A message from Myra last night;

Sorry for the delayed update but the national partnership review team just finished up this afternoon.

Congratulations! Brunson is accepted into network partnership with EL Education.  
I will be following up in a couple of weeks with next steps. The Schools Team is meeting next week to align ourselves on the planning phase for this cohort of schools.

For now, you can take a breath as I know you all have been working really hard to meet our accelerated timeline.

Have a great rest of your week!
