FICA: Forum for
Instruction, Curriculum and Assessment is a collaborative among the BOCES in the
WNYRIC JMT region. The group consists of instructional leaders from each of the
BOCES including representation from staff and curriculum development, model
schools and school library systems. The group meets to discuss local BOCES
instructional initiatives in an effort to share information, expertise and
programs to school districts throughout the JMT region. In addition, WNYRIC
staff provides information on new and expanded services especially where a
combined BOCES/WNYRIC shared service delivery model provides for more cohesive
service to the school districts we support. |
