Despite some of our best efforts, public schools continue to be getting attacked from all sides. It seems that there is no end to the tactics critics will use in an effort to distract us from our core mission. We are exhausted by the need to continually respond to misinformation and defend our practices focused on serving the individual needs of each and every student. We know the best strategy is to proactively promote a positive narrative about what is really happening in our classrooms. But what else can you do?
Building on our successful "The Fires Are Burning & The Waves Are High" content and reflecting on what has been happening in schools around the country over the last 12 months, this session will:
- Explore even more ways to tell your district's story
- Help with ways to address criticisms
- Enable you to build trust with stakeholders
- Empower you to lead the way in bringing civility and respect back into community dialogue
