ENGAGE 2024 Professional Learning Conference

Opening a new school has a specific set of challenges and blessings.  It can feel like "you're not in Kansas anymore".  As we share our experiences opening Wilson MS, Adams MS, and Worthington MS, participants will gain insights into adapting instructional strategies, building culture in a new place, and embracing innovation.  While this will be from a fine arts perspective (we teach orchestra and choir), the content can be applied to any teacher or support staff interested or curious about what opening a new campus can really involve, and how you can make your new school feel like home for you and your students quickly, without getting losing your mind in the process.

Session Attendees will learn about the reasons teachers take attendance, how attendance affects funding and other fun topics! Come join us for some engaging discussion!

Science, Technology, Engineering, Math, OH MY! In this session we will talk about ways to integrate STEAM activities into your lessons. Join us for a rotation of STEM lessons, and get hands on experience with engaging activities. At the end of the session you will walk away with multiple lesson plans and ideas to bring to your classroom.
