Speakers

As an education leader, the past year may have put you into survival mode, but many of the pandemic measures have positively impacted students, staff, and communities. At the inaugural ThoughtExchange Education Leadership Summit, we dug into the practices that have proven successful during the COVID-19 school year to help leaders like you build a framework for replicating them in your district.

Attendees joined former superintendent and current Director of Education Operations, Dr. Dennis Carpenter, for a half-day virtual conference with education leaders from around the country. Throughout the Summit, we used the ThoughtExchange platform to actively take part in the discussions and help shape the conversation around what the school year should look like in 21-22 and beyond.

Navigating National Budgets

It’s a trying time for your district, and consistent communication with your community is what’s going to get you through it. Your teachers, students, and families need to know that you’re present with them at every stage of this crisis.

SESSION 2B

Reversing the Pandemic Slide

Children across most school districts have experienced some level of regression over the last year and this is especially true of students who have traditionally been furthest away from opportunity in schools. In this discussion, education leaders will discuss ideas that will support their communities and students in this area.
