This second annual conference will build on last year’s conference by providing districts with the opportunity to learn from and engage with one another in sharing successful practices for creating meaningful and coherent opportunities to align student and educator goals that lead to enhanced instruction and help educators and their students meet more rigorous learning expectations.
