DHS leaders present format Duo details New Tech to Northern Iowa

DANVILLE — Danville High School will get top billing today as New Tech leaders present details of their new educational delivery system to a group of educators at the University of Northern Iowa.

New Tech Director and DHS Assistant Principal Darin Chambliss and New Tech-certified trainer and DHS teacher Jacob Bretz will make the presentation, traveling to Cedar Falls during this weekend for a statewide educational summit.

“It’s kind of a good feeling that they asked us and just a real good opportunity for us,” Chambliss said.

According to Lyn Countryman, interim director of the university’s on-campus Malcolm Price Laboratory School, the university is using the event to hear presentations from several alternative school programs as it moves toward its goal of becoming a “research, development, demonstration and dissemination” school.
