Shopping and More: The Dollars, Decisions, and Value of Reading, Math, and Thinking Skills
Want to engage students? Or provide students with proof of the value of reading, math and thinking skills? Explore the supermarket to create inquiry and wise decision making! The products beg for purchasing—but is there more to consider besides an appealing package, name brand, and price? Challenge students to use basic reading and math skills to investigate advertising and marketing techniques that grab the dollars.
Lessons and engaging content information provided includes advertising and marketing techniques, purpose, and strategies used to influence decision making. And there’s shrinkflation to investigate! When packaging is designed to hold less contents, or less content is in a package, the change is often not noticed. For example, traditionally, consumers bought coffee in a one-pound can. But that changed to as few as 11 ounces. Or has the number of tissues in a box decreased while the price remained the same? Is this advertised—or legal? How can consumers make wise decisions when spending their dollars? It’s all about thinking skills. . .and reading and math!

Are Some Students Left Out of the Equation? Providing Access for All Students in Mathematics Through Scaffolded Questioning
Asking intentional and purposeful questions ensures that every student has access to develop and sustain their mathematical competence and build their mathematical identity.
In this session, we will explore a questioning strategy to check for students' mathematics understanding while connecting to research from NCTM’s Principles to Actions: Ensuring Success for All (2014) and NCTM’s Catalyzing Change: Initiating Critical Conversations (2021). Focusing on implementing equitable mathematics instruction through purposeful questioning, one of the eight Mathematics Teaching Practices, we will examine how scaffolding up and down using the “Strive for Five” strategy provides equitable ways for all students to challenge and progress their thinking. Participants will have an opportunity to engage in an interactive activity identifying appropriate scaffolding strategies and setting goals for students to support varying learners to take back to their schools and classrooms.

Co-Taught and Co-Owned; The Power of 2
Some teachers view co-teaching in such a negative lens that it can't help but flow over to the students and the classroom environment, but it doesn't have to be that way! Both teachers should be seen and treated as the experts of their craft within that classroom.
The reality is that the co-teaching experience has become so much more about the adults in the room instead of the students it was designed to support. Join my co-presenter and me as we show you how to navigate the co-teaching experience so that the focus comes back to the students and the teachers can become the positive, impactful educators in the room.

The Making of a Teacher Leader: Re-Imagining the Role of the Grade Chair
In recent years, the role of the grade/team leader has become little more than a telephone — delivering information to peers, returning with concerns and complaints. After delving into reflective feedback from Building Leadership Team members in summer of 2023, we committed to designing an action plan that would grow and foster the skills deemed necessary for our teacher leaders to be successful. What emerged was a year-long scaffolded pace of sessions including topics such as designing effective agendas, redirection using protocols, the use of anecdotal notes to provide reflective feedback, shifting the mindset of an established team, and everyone's favorite — dealing with sticky situations! This curriculum was designed to build a toolbox of reliable coaching strategies as well as soft skills to build leader confidence in their role. Join us to collaborate on how you can strengthen the web of shared leadership through these intentional action steps.

The Role of Probing Questions in Addressing Student Needs: Supportive Tools for All Occasions
There are decades of research that support the use of questioning within the classroom environment as well as documentation recognizing the potential impact on student learning. One of the most important tools teachers have at their disposal are the questions they ask students on a regular basis. The key is in understanding what types to ask, when to ask them based on the content and goal of the lesson, and how to follow up after student responses. This session offers participants the opportunity to examine the role of probing questions in multiple learning situations such as during group activities or centers, game play, whole class discussion and small group instruction. We will then consider structures that assist in aligning the learning situation, intent, activity goal, and possible impact for the learner. Participants will review tools and resources that promote questioning, provide access and focus on advancing student learning.

Accountability, the Pulse to Continuous Improvement: Bringing Life to Inspecting Expectations
Jefferson County School District is the second-largest school district in Alabama, serving over 36,000 students in 58 different schools. A considerable component of its vision statement is to effectively address the diverse needs of all learners. Therefore, this school district has been challenged with strategically identifying continuous district and school-level improvement phases, in which effective best practices and processes are customized, formalized and sustained through every aspect of the school.
This session will examine a systemic continuous improvement approach with coherent guidance and support from evidence-based internal and external accountability sources, which detail a streamlined laser focus on what matters in order to yield data-driven results. The purpose of this session will be to provide an overview of the process and expectations as well as to hear stories from the trenches of district school leaders who are implementing best practices of continuous improvement.

Succeeding With Your Toughest Students - Techniques to Reach Defiant, Challenging and Unresponsive Students
In this session participants will learn how to use the Discipline Card, Crisis Intervention Unit, Tardy/Truancy Cards, Shelter Card and the Wave. Time will be spent looking at paradoxical responses, teaching student's "response-ability" and building trusting relationships. Teacher empowerment and a more positive, safe school/classroom environment are direct results of this session. All students, even the "tough ones" must know you expect them to work in your classroom and be successful. Participants are given proactive intervention strategies that, when implemented correctly, will decrease overt disruptive behavior resulting in increased time-on-task in the classroom, less direct Student/Teacher confrontations, decreased office referrals, and greater student success.

THE I.E.P. TRAP: Black Males Segregated by Low Expectations, Imprisoned by Illiteracy!
America has a long history of segregation and inequality in public education. Public education seems to be divided into two different systems — general education and special education. In a perfect world they would work cohesively together to meet the needs of all learners but to be honest, it hardly happens. There is a serious over-representation of Black males in special education. Black males are subject to disparities in SPED identification and discipline practices. The disproportionate representation of Black males in SPED is a symptom of a much larger problem facing America, which funnels Black male students into separate classrooms at extremely high rates. Reports also suggest that inappropriate and inadequate special education services may be a leading factor in over representation of minority adolescents in the juvenile justice system. Craig’s trademark slogan, GED to PHD is a concrete paradigm that educators should never give up on any student.

Repeat Session-The End Game: A MARVELous Start-to-Finish Approach to High School
This presentation seeks to illuminate the successful student transition process at GMC, focusing on the transition from middle to high school and culminating in post-secondary readiness through our innovative Senior Capstone program. Our strategy begins with an intensive focus on incoming students with info nights, tours, and personalized intake sessions. Additionally, our freshmen year includes Blazer Bootcamp, mentoring initiatives, and retreats that foster a supportive environment. The "end game" of our approach is Senior Capstone, a year-long graduation requirement emphasizing project-based mastery learning. Senior Capstone integrates traditional problem-based learning, work-based opportunities, and a public showcase, reinforcing skills such as flexibility, critical thinking, problem solving, and effective communication. These practices bookend our middle college, dual enrollment offerings. Attendees will gain insights specifically into our start-to-finish educational model that not only prepares students for high school, but also equips them for success in the complex landscapes of post-secondary education and beyond.

PERSPECTIVE - Understand Where Your Students are Coming From!
The factors that influence students' beliefs and attitudes about the value of formal education are complex and expansive, especially concerning marginalized student populations. Dr. Tommie Mabry builds from personal experiences as a child labeled "at risk" to promote empathy and understanding in motivating youth's success. Perspective is a holistic construct encompassing mindset, emotions, effort and outcomes. Layered with effective methodologies, chapters address a range of critical topics important to this view of perspective, including extensive information on enhancing faculty and staff perspectives on igniting students' passions and relationships.

How Can I support and Retain my New CTE Teachers? Supporting Industry Professionals to Become Successful Classroom Instructors
The US Department of Education estimates at least 28 states are experiencing a CTE teacher shortage for the 2023-24 school year. Nearly 2/3 of CTE instructors come to CTE after working in the private sector. They become certified in public education via alternate certification routes – Many new teachers from industry struggle leaving industry and walking into a classroom of high school (and college) students. Their expectations versus reality are not what they envisioned. Working in public education certainly is a different world than working in an industry where you can fire employees for not doing their job, acting inappropriately, and showing up late or not showing up at all.
Shared-time centers MUST make it a priority to support their new teachers – especially those that come directly from industry without any formal education training. Join the session to get ideas of efforts in shared-time centers to support new teachers and help them grow into professional educators. You will also leave with a list of resources that will help you and your new teachers succeed!

Community-Based PBL: Vertical Articulation K-12
This session communicates a launch of vertical articulation for PBL in Irvington Community Schools, Indiana. A focus team from K-12 is developing vertical articulation K-12 using the SREB PBL Practices and Guidelines from SREB Focus Teams to design, implement and sustain Community-based projects.
Because Irvington is a protected historic neighborhood, there is a need to preserve and grow the community. This is a perfect opportunity for community-based projects and for the schools to align projects to this initiative. This session will provide a first-year launch into developing engaging instruction while building leadership for continuous improvement simultaneously. K-12 teachers are collaborating to identify themes that can be vertically articulated. Speaker(s): Marty Sugerik

Rethinking Depth of Knowledge
There is a renewed focus and purpose on teaching and learning with Depth of Knowledge, especially now as schools and staff seek to develop and deliver teaching and learning experiences that are academically rigorous and student supportive. There is also new information and research that will cause educators to rethink what exactly Depth of Knowledge is and reconsider what rigorous teaching and learning involves. In this seminar, you will learn how Depth of Knowledge clarifies what exactly students must learn and how deeply students must understand the material to demonstrate proficiency or perform successfully. You will also learn how the DOK levels can be used as a multi-tiered method and model for delivering instruction, responding to intervention, and addressing and assessing learning loss. Most importantly, you will learn how DOK redefines rigor by ensuring teaching and learning is standards-driven, socially and emotionally supportive, and student responsive so that the experience is academic and effective for all.

Students, Social Media and Soft Skills (PBL Playground Session)
How many texts have you sent today? Do you scroll through social media first thing in the morning or check to see how many people have liked your post? Social media is a part of our daily society, so it is important to ensure your students understand the pros and pitfalls of electronic communication! Our interactive session focuses on three game-changing tips for students on effectively communicating with others, understanding possible consequences of posting and preventing negative outcomes that can occur through electronic communication. Participate in hands-on activities that build employability skills, focus on communication and prepare students for the workplace. (YES! Take these activities back to your classroom!)

STEMming from the Roots: Pioneering STEM Education at the Elementary Level
The value of STEM education for building discipline knowledge, critical thinking and problem-solving skills, aligned with students’ need to function productively within the complex and challenging future workforce, has become a recurring topic in education. STEM has become a priority to pilot within two elementary schools within the Jefferson County School District. Hear from the principal, Dr. Monique Stewart, and Ms. Leslie Eaves, Program Director of project based learning, as they share their experiences from the first two years of “Going STEM.” Adamsville Elementary School seeks to become an inclusive STEM school, serving students from diverse backgrounds, as opposed to selective schools, which typically serve only highly motivated students. You will hear from the school's principal on how to inspire community involvement, increase teacher buy-in, and the planning process undertaken so far to become STEM-certified. We will also share how SREB coaches provided deep layers of support throughout the process.

This session will help you move from setting your goals to reaching your goals.
In this session, participants will focus on goal setting using the 4DX (Four Disciplines of Execution) framework, participants will learn to achieve strategic goals by focusing on four essential disciplines. First, they identify a Wildly Important Goal (WIG), ensuring it is specific, measurable, and aligned with the organization's priorities. The second discipline involves acting on lead measures, which are high-impact actions that drive success in achieving the WIG. The third discipline emphasizes keeping a compelling scoreboard to track progress, providing a clear visual representation of success and motivating team members. Lastly, the fourth discipline is creating a cadence of accountability through regular, frequent meetings where team members report on commitments, review the scoreboard, and make new commitments to drive the WIG forward. This structured approach transforms strategic intentions into actionable steps, fostering a culture of accountability and continuous improvement, ultimately leading to successful goal attainment.

Striving for Success: Ways to Sustain and Maintain Women Leadership Practice!
In this dynamic, thought-provoking session, participants are invited to embark on a journey of critical thinking and open dialogue, exploring the nuances in which women lead. African-American Women in education face unique challenges as educators; however, African-American women sharing their expertise in the field can help sustain women's leadership. As women move into leadership positions, they have historically been socialized in professional settings. Together, we will delve into strategies to dismantle these ingrained patterns. The session will provide a safe and empowering space to examine how we, as women, can break free from societal expectations and how male allies can assist women in leadership. The objectives are: (1) Examine a leadership framework and engage in activities that reflect on individual experiences in leadership focused on five characteristics: heart, passion, resolve, accountability, and determination. At the end of this session, the facilitator hopes that the knowledge gained will assist current and future women in navigating change leadership, stereotypes, biases and microaggression.

Supporting and Retaining Induction Level Leaders: Case Study of Georgia Department of Education
Behind every thriving teacher is an exceptional leader! Whether it’s in a large or a small school district, new education leaders often report feeling isolated and overwhelmed with the unique demands of their positions. The Georgia Department of Education has made a commitment to retain and support school leaders who are in their first three years of their current position in order to create a strong system of leaders across the state. In partnership with SREB leadership coaches, GADOE has designed a framework to allow leaders to collaborate with each other monthly. State and district leaders join them in these meetings to tackle problems of practice they are currently facing and to examine their personal journeys as new leaders. This process began as a virtual network in 2022-23 and has expanded to include face-to-face sessions to grow a state-wide network of partners.

You want me to teach all of those kids in one class?
This presentation is designed to aid teachers struggling with classroom management or who need a little inspiration. Teachers will experience it and learn how to effectively use these techniques to teach, maintain classroom control and create productive learning communities that extend beyond the classroom. This interactive session demonstrates how teachers can get their classes to function as "one" unit, build a community of collaborative learners and have "those" students excited to come to class. Scaffolding student learning, instruction delivery and checking for understanding becomes a flawless process. Students take on classroom roles and hold one another accountable, which increases students' depths of knowledge and test scores. Accountable talk, academic conversations, peer-to-peer teaching and positive affirmations while meeting the need of every learner and giving them a fun, learning environment where everyone feels safe to share and take risks in learning is taken to a higher level. Make ordinary learning extraordinary without having to do "one more thing."

Back to the Basics: Instructional Supports for Teachers That Improve Student Outcomes
The continuous school improvement process can be overwhelming and at times daunting. But how do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time.
As the principal and lead learner, your primary responsibility is to ensure rigorous, standards-aligned learning experiences happen in every classroom, for every student, every day. During this session, I will highlight how administrative teams can utilize the 90-day plan process to improve student outcomes, build teacher capacity and grow administrators' instructional leadership toolkit. Explore how to leverage your 90-day plan to support teachers in transforming your school through an intentional focus on collaborative planning, observations and feedback. Leave with ideas for developing a protocol for administrative teams to positively impact instruction. Speaker(s): Kimberly Kessinger

Layers of Support
Learn how a high school of 2,500 students defeats apathy and increases student achievement by utilizing a school-wide list of missing assignments while building layers of support.
School leaders will share how they are increasing student achievement, holding students accountable to complete every assignment and showering students with a variety of support opportunities. The layers of support implemented have led to many student academic successes, from graduation rates averaging 97% over the last nine years to individual victories with formerly apathetic learners.

Canceled: Moving from Surviving to Thriving as a First Year Teacher Canceled
In this presentation, I will discuss how self-investment and investment by others at the school set me on the trajectory to maintain a great welding program. The support in tools, materials and industry standard equipment would clearly be continued for me and my students. What wasn’t guaranteed was whether I could teach and train the forty young people to be employable tax paying citizens. Over the course of my first year, I had to take ownership of each aspect of my program and be responsible for not maintaining a program, but I was also expected to make improvements. I had to fulfill my school’s slogan of helping students to “discover their competitive advantage." I also had to reflect on the job I had done, and measure how effectively I had met my goals as a teacher, which ultimately determined my decision to return for my second year.

How I Have Survived My First Five Years of Teaching
My session will help new teachers develop the skills they need to develop strong relationships, engage every student in the room, minimize classroom disruptions and manage their workload efficiently.
I will share strategies I have successfully used in my classroom to build meaningful relationships on the first day of school and maintain those relationships throughout the year. This includes students developing a social contract and sharing a short biography about themselves. I have tips to share that have helped me reduce disruptions and improve behavior. These include using a seating chart the correct way and adjusting this arrangement throughout the year. Classroom engagement from every student in the room is very important to me, and I try my best to receive input from every student in the room every single class period. Speaker(s): Quincey Hatch

Shining a B.E.A.M on Literacy at Home!
Come and learn how to use the B.E.A.M. framework to create engaging literacy activities for your students to take home. Help teach your students’ families meaningful ways to engage with text to build student comprehension through building up vocabulary, exploring new topics, asking good questions and making connections. Build a literacy kit that you can send home with students for homework, extension of learning or during school breaks where learning loss can occur. Learn how to engage families through read-alouds and literacy activities and build those important relationships that ensure student success. Literacy activities built around B.E.A.M also make great centers in the classroom as well as giveaways for community partners.

A Reverse Career Fair: An overhaul to student/stakeholder engagement
This presentation will discuss a renovation to the typical ‘career fair’ design. This re-composition, what I call a
'Reverse Career Fair', is designed to guarantee student-employer engagement. Within this design, students
will naturally have to self-advocate, promote their skills, and interact meaningfully with employers and industry
representatives. While leveraged in a Georgia Work-Based Learning Program, the 'Reverse Career Fair' is a
natural and dynamic capstone for any CTE Pathway or work experience.
Documents and resources will only be made available to verified session attendees--so make this session a
priority!

Repeat Session-Student Trauma and its Role in the SREB School Improvement Process
The adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) can significantly impact a student's learning and contribute to disruptions in both the classroom and campus environment. In this session, Dr. Palmer will present an overview of research on childhood trauma and adverse childhood experiences, emphasizing associated outcomes. Systems of support, informed by an understanding of trauma's impact on children, will guide the Root Cause Analysis and Goal Setting within the SREB Improvement Process for campuses or districts. The session will delve into multi-tiered interventions targeting negative behaviors linked to trauma, including nonattendance, outbursts, defiance, and avoidance. Strategies for identifying possible trauma and implementing interventions, grounded in best practices and research, will be explored. By adopting a multi-tiered intervention approach involving administrators, teachers, parents, and other staff, schools can reshape outcomes for these children, fostering a supportive network that positively influences their learning and life trajectory.

Beyond the Ice Breaker: RP in CTE
It can initially be challenging to build a CTE program's culture when bringing together students from multiple high schools - using restorative practices along with their shared interests strengthens community within the classroom even faster.
Involving students in school climate and culture issues is an important step in making a difference at any school. Have you provided staff with opportunities to learn restorative practices? Do students have opportunities to step into leadership roles within both their program and the center? Opportunities to share their concerns, thoughts and suggestions? This session will focus on using proactive circles to develop strong communities in CTE programming and providing opportunities for student facilitation by moving beyond the initial team-building components of Restorative Practices. Using protocols, circles and the fishbowl, we’ll engage in discussions about building opportunities for student voice, engaging staff and students in building and supporting a positive climate and culture and developing student leaders in CTE.

Data-Driven Vertical Alignment in a PreK-12 Setting
Participants will explore a district-wide plan for grade-level-to-grade-level vertical alignment that incorporates formative and summative assessment data, state standards and teacher input. This year-long process begins with ensuring alignment within each grade level, then supporting teachers in cross-grade level and cross-content collaboration.
Throughout the process, teachers are provided with the necessary tools and knowledge to analyze grade-level standards and student performance data to make informed decisions about curricular focus areas in each content area. The result will be a clear, parent-friendly document that outlines academic expectations for success in each grade level and a district-wide document that highlights the instructional focus areas for each grade level and content area.

High Quality Work-Based Learning: Engaging Schools, Colleges and Employers With Students and Success
Students cannot aspire to careers in high-wage, in-demand sectors unless they have opportunities to learn about them. High-quality work-based learning experiences help young people understand their strengths and interests as they plan for education and career goals.
High-quality work-based learning experiences demand a new level of collaboration between schools, colleges, employers and communities to assure students have opportunities to close academic and skills gaps and successfully progress through aligned secondary and postsecondary programs. Join us for an in-depth discussion as we jointly explore work-based learning from a definitive, scope and application perspective. We will review successful models focusing on key work-based learning components, educational and industry partner engagement and student success. Our discussion will document how high-quality work-based learning experiences incorporate and support student attainment of aligned industry-valued success skills, certifications and academic outcomes.

Producing Students Who Are Ready: Highlighting Teacher Efficacy and Student Wellbeing
Teacher Efficacy is the belief that teachers have the confidence to impact student learning and is one of the most important mechanisms for improving student achievement and lessening equity gaps. Yet establishing school teams of teachers that work well and effectively together can be a challenge in many schools. Skilled and talented individuals do not always mesh together to work successfully as a team. Unsuccessful teams oftentimes produce unsuccessful students. Focusing on student achievement and targeting the well-being of teachers leads to increased student performance and positive teacher confidence. Discover how one school brought teachers together, developed teacher efficacy, and supported staff and students' mental health learning and well-being.

Repeat Session-Meaningful Grammar: The Language of Writing
Learn a unique, research-based, classroom-tested approach to help all learners understand how grammar concepts work together in a way that directly impacts reading and writing. In this hands-on session, participants will take one carefully chosen mentor sentence through a logical five-step process that reveals the relevance and interconnection of concepts such as the parts of speech, sentence functions, phrases and clauses. After a quick yet thoughtful analysis of the sentence, participants will see that the process encourages students to think critically about grammar concepts, use their understanding of the concepts to make good choices about capitalization and punctuation, and become aware of how grammatical structure impacts the content of their own writing. Session will include specific strategies for using this engaging instructional method in traditional, online, and hybrid classrooms, and participants will leave with writing ideas that are easy to implement for grades 1-12.

Repeat Session-You Want Me to TEACH all of those kids in one class?
This presentation is designed to aid teachers struggling with classroom management or who need a little inspiration. Teachers will experience it and learn how to effectively use these techniques to teach, maintain classroom control and create productive learning communities that extend beyond the classroom. This interactive session demonstrates how teachers can get their classes to function as "one" unit, build a community of collaborative learners and have "those" students excited to come to class. This technique meets all of the learning modalities in every class, every day. Scaffolding student learning, instruction delivery and checking for understanding becomes a flawless process. Students take on classroom roles and hold one another accountable, which increases students' depths of knowledge and test scores. Accountable talk, academic conversations, peer-to-peer teaching and positive affirmations while meeting the need of every learner and giving them a fun, learning environment where everyone feels safe to share and take risks in learning is taken to a higher level. Make ordinary learning extraordinary without having to do "one more thing."

Repeat Session-Rebirth of Scratch Paper with Online Repeat Session-Testing and How to Boost Scores while reinforcing Text evidence
Assessments, while necessary, can mean loss of instruction time. What if that wasn’t the case? Literacy assessments can reinforce strategies taught in class, like annotation and text evidence. Text evidence is a sub skill found in many standards and if taught throughout the year, then students can find it to prove their answers on a test. Scratch paper that is often available on standardized tests can be effectively used to help students comprehend both the passages and the test questions. They can utilize the paper to help them find evidence and support their answer. Students can rewrite questions to help them understand and summarize longer passages to keep up with important ideas. Active reading with paper helps students stay focused.
The use of scratch paper can help students manipulate the passage and questions. This paper can be utilized to summarize passages, find evidence for questions, and explain answers. The use of scratch paper while reading in class and during a test can assist students in becoming more confident and strong readers. Students have found test taking strategies to help them feel more confident in their answers.
Computerized testing while reading can be difficult even for this generation. Research has proven that strategies that involve active reading and note taking helps students to retain information.

Do You C.A.R.E. About Your Students? Teachers’ Perceptions on Educating Students
This presentation will explain how some teachers in today’s society perceive students from different walks of life and how personal biases may impede the educational process for more students than we want to believe. You will also learn how to make necessary changes to grow as an educator and become a great teacher. Finally, you will have access to strategies that will help any educator demonstrate consistency with standard operating procedures and analyze data to assist with professional growth.
I once heard you must first know your students to educate them. That is true; however, I say, you must truly C.A.R.E. about your students to educate them and make a positive impact on their lives. Speaker(s): Dr. Cleve Pilot

Strategies for Building Confident Readers
To improve as readers and be ready for higher-level learning, students must be able to use various keys to unlock a text. Participants will learn how to use strategies and tools such as summarizing, predicting, inferring, analyzing, comparing, determining word meaning, as well as other techniques, to help students increase comprehension. My approach engages students in repeated daily practice using a wide variety of texts that are readily available in classrooms or libraries. By following the steps in the daily and weekly review, students are able to move concepts into long-term memory. Participants will work through an actual lesson and leave with handouts that include easy-to-implement activities and sample lessons.

Repeat Session-Empower Students and Teachers to Succeed
Research is clear that students work harder and challenge less when they know we care and what we expect of them. Teachers need to be equipped and empowered to handle challenging situations and disruptions in class so students can stay focused on learning and achieving. There’s ample research about effective methods to support students AND our teachers. These methods are simple, but not easy.
This session is a transformative journey, equipping educators with research-backed strategies to navigate the complexities of classroom management. Addressing challenges like non-compliant students, unresponsive learners and the cycle of repeated warnings, the session focuses on five core components:
Self-control
Teach-To’s
Refocus
Classroom Arrangement
Unconditional Positive Regard
These strategies prioritize positivity and guidance, keeping students focused on learning and addressing behavioral issues within the classroom. The commitment is to leave nothing to chance, emphasizing a classroom where students and teachers can succeed.
Join this session to unlock the secrets to a well-managed, success-driven classroom experience.

Practices Need Practice: Integrating ELA, Math, and Science Practices To Explain My World
The 21st century brings with it a higher imperative for students to do more than know how to read, calculate or memorize science fact to be both viable members of society and the workforce. At the same time, classroom pressures to cover all the standards especially in reading and math often push science and deeper engagement out. The practices associated with the three content areas overlap and provide students opportunities to develop great explanatory power of the world around them. This session will engage participants in actively participating in integrated lessons and discuss the set them on a path to develope their own. The session is applicable at every grade band and grade level.

Repeat Session-Do you C.A.R.E. about your students? "Teachers’ Perceptions on Educating Students"
This presentation will explain how some teachers in today’s society perceive students from different walks of life and ways personal biases may impede the educational process for more students than we want to believe. You will also learn how to make necessary changes to grow as an educator and become a great teacher. Finally, you will have access to strategies that will help any educator demonstrate consistency with standard operating procedures, and analyze data to assist with professional growth. I once heard you must first know your students to educate them. That is true, however, I say, you must truly C.A.R.E. about your students to educate them and make a positive impact on their lives.

A part of designing instruction that we sometimes fail to consider is that things will not always go as planned due to the energy in the room. Energy, in this sense, refers to more than physical exertion. It is also the mental and emotional state that influences motivation and interaction.
This presentation will address the question of how to determine and maximize classroom energy. It will be divided as follows:

Put Your Program on the Map with a Community Engagement Project
The downtown Dothan Scout’s Alley project has been a great community service project that has proven to be a very positive experience for the Dothan Tech Graphic Arts Students and Dothan community. The student’s hard work in redefining the Scout’s Alley look and appearance has sparked excitement and interest in redefining downtown Dothan. It is inspiring to see young people making a positive impact on the Dothan community and the great way these students have performed with teamwork, creativity, togetherness and respect. Students really took responsibility during every phase, from measuring, planning, creative design processes, color choices, implementing supply purchases, planning field trips to paint and conducted a project post implementation review. This project has also set the bar high for other career tech programs in our community as it relates to serving the community we live.

Repeat Session-Strategies for Working with and Among Difficult People
Great leaders should keep their lawn manicured, keep their weeds down to a minimum, keep their trees and shrubbery pruned.
This should be done so you can easily spot the snakes not in your yard-- but in your organization. The same applies on your job, business, in your church, or civic organization. All of us must work with and among difficult people.

Middle School Career Exploration: Preparing Students for a Changing Workforce
In this session you will learn about district and statewide initiatives that you can implement that help middle school students answer the questions: “Who am I?” “What’s out there for me?” and “How do I get there?” CTE in the middle grades has a distinct role and purpose within the career development continuum. To help put students on a path to success, middle schools should support students as they gain awareness and exposure to a wide array of careers, increase self-awareness and develop employability skills and transition to high school with an action plan for next steps. Participants will learn about the Middle School Empowerment initiative which promotes student learning through workplace environment, authentic learning, and entrepreneurial mindsets. Henrico County Workforce and Career Development, Virginia, will share their Summer Polytech program where students explore career pathways and their Life Ready Expo which connects students with industry leaders while exploring possible careers. Participants will receive tools for implementation at their school.

The Turnaround: Teaching in a failing school
It is crucial to understand why a school is failing, before strategies can be implemented towards school improvement. Aside from inefficiency and socioeconomic status, many school issues begin with instructional practices. We will identify factors that allowed our school to turnaround by improving engagement with our students and teachers to help close the achievement gap.

When learning IS a laughing matter: Humor as an instructional sidekick!
Have you ever experienced the good feelings that come from sharing a laugh and finding humor in a moment? Join us to explore the world of humor and laughter for students, teachers, and the learning environment! Multiple research efforts have concluded various benefits to humor and laughter on learners across age groups and domains. As learning environments face increasing sources of stress and disengagement, laughter (a universal expression/experience) and the human-connecting power of humor, play an important role for fostering trust and boosting positive interactions. This session is not about becoming a comedian or designed only for those that consider themselves funny. This facilitated discussion and strategy-sharing opportunity is for any educator interested in exploring how humor, as part of an instructional approach, can reduce stress, increase job satisfaction, and boost students’ feelings of acceptance and connection. Now that is something to laugh about!

Join us at this session to learn about the various youth-related financial education curricula that can be incorporated into your classrooms.
FDIC offers free financial education curricula for youth and young adults:
Learn how your school can work with a local financial institution to open a bank inside your school to provide hands-on learning to your students. In our Youth Savings Pilot conducted over a two-year period, we saw several models of banks, from teller stations set up at a table in a cafeteria to a branch set up inside schools. Both examples included using students as tellers. Speaker(s): Tracie Morris Joan Gustafson

MATC ACCESS- A Streamlined Solution to the Enrollment Journey
Mid-America Technology Center is a shared time center offering more than 33 programs at 18 high schools and their surrounding communities. A joint venture involving counselors, recruiters, programmers, special populations coordinators and administrators, MATC ACCESS is the most current solution created to get the right students in the right programs. This solution automates multiple sources of input regarding a student’s demographics, enrollment desires and sending school background information and associated documentation to supply data into one user friendly database. With more and more students choosing the CTE direction, the historic problems of aptitude and prerequisites has been replaced by enrollment capacity and waiting lists. ACCESS provides a way to get the student, the sending school, and Mid-America recruiters and staff cooperatively engaged in the enrollment process. This presentation will discuss the creation and evolution of the ACCESS tool as well as the success and failures discovered during its initial implementation.

Mid-America's Grow your own – Create and implement your own teacher induction
There are many choices for teacher induction. At Mid-America Technology Center, we chose to grow our own and ensure that what is presented to our new teachers fits “how we do it” at Mid-America Technology Center. Teacher induction consists of meeting with new teachers and covering important topics that all new teachers need. This does not replace a mentor teacher but supplements the teacher's first-year experience. In this session, we will show you how Mid-America Technology Center meets the needs of a first-year teacher. Meeting their needs is essential for the retention of teachers and ensuring they have the tools needed to meet the challenges of today’s teachers.

The Power of Performance Assessment in CTE
Join this action-oriented session on how best to leverage performance assessment for any learner! Explore 5 key practices that support students and teachers to get more from these experiences. Attendees are invited to hear examples from various settings that challenge us to think about assessment design, testing environment, grading strategies and tools, data analysis and engaging evaluators. Performance assessment is fundamental to skills-based learning, and CTE teachers and researchers can provide insights on ways to enhance this as part of a high-quality CTE program. Strategies and resources will be shared.
(Behind the session) Notes: Research premises for upcoming national task force meetings:
• Performance assessment sets CTE apart and provides deeper information on a learner’s competence
• By design, these assessments can include durable skills (more aligned with future-in-demand skills and thinking)
• Data from performance assessments can be helpful source of feedback both for individual and program —real-time opportunities
• This effort creates a rich platform to engage B&I partners to provide feedback, invest in the next generation workforce, look for potential employees, etc…
• Guiding questions:
1. How can we promote PA as a value-add for more CTE systems?
2. What are the barriers to effective use of this practice?

Grade Cleanse: A Move at Your Own Pace Approach to Healthier Grading
Grading experts tell us our traditional grades are often meaningless because they don’t reflect learning. Teachers often say, “I want to improve my grading practices, but I don’t know where to start.”
Instead of trying to make major changes that are overwhelming and scary, why not just take a baby step that is the most comfortable for you and then take another when you are ready? The baby steps offered during this session will improve the health of your assignments and student grades while intrinsically motivating you to cleanse your practices intrinsically.

Using a Million Dollar Idea to Develop a Professional Learning Plan for New or Inexperienced Teachers
If you are a building leader with new or inexperienced teachers, then you understand the importance and the value of developing and retaining a highly impactful staff. In this interactive session, participants will examine the components that have made Wordle a world famous word game worth millions of dollars and used by millions of users. These components of consistency, inconsistency, challenge and communication will be used as a professional learning template for new teachers. Participants will see examples of how these components are seen in classroom management, lesson planning and delivery and assessments. Further, it will be shown how these aspects can be tailored to meet building and school system expectations as well as how teachers can seemlessly apply them into their classrooms. Participants will leave with everything they need to provide a system of professional development for new teachers that will translate into more highly effective and impactful teachers.

A Systemic Link Between the Absence of a High-Quality Early Childhood Education Experience and K-3 Literacy Skills, and Student Development
This presentation dives into how the affordability of early childhood education plays a major factor in our students’ kindergarten through 3rd-grade literacy skills as well as their social development.
Data from North Carolina’s Health Department indicates that “children with low reading proficiency are more likely to drop out of high school, acquire low-paying jobs that limit access to health care and have increased risks for numerous adverse health outcomes.” Additionally, the Office of Early Learning through the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction found that for the first time in at least 10 school years, most of the state’s first--, second-, and third-grade students did not demonstrate reading proficiency. In this presentation, we will brainstorm action steps to dismantle some of these systemic barriers and have tools/methods to take back to our buildings to support teachers with the literacy and instructional best practices to help close academic gaps perpetuated by opportunity deficits.

Are You an 'Able' Educational Leader? Six Characteristics to Concentrate Upon
You went to college, you did the work and now you have a title, but...how do you impact change? Has to quest to be a ‘better’ educational leader become a chore of endless journeys through books, conferences and articles describing what you ‘need’ to do? Would a simple look at the essentials of your role be a refreshing change?
This session will look at your current leadership role and how concentrating on six simple ‘able’ words might allow you to make some focused changes in your own behaviors and priorities. Learn how simple changes in focus can make a big difference in your impact on school culture. We will review how six 'able' words can make a difference - knowledgABLE, VisIBLE, understandABLE, accessIBLE, dependABLE, and accountABLE. Using these six words in your daily routine will increase your ability to help the culture of your school become more effective/efficient and may lead to improved student achievement. By internalizing these six aspects of leadership, principals can simplify their own goals and behaviors. Many ideas, tools and the processes needed to change your emphasis will be shared.

Choosing to Lead: Creating Systems That Support Math Teachers and Empower Students to Do the Hard Work of Learning
A focus on equity-centered instruction is needed now more than ever. Many mathematics teachers have a desire to change their practice but don’t know how. They are often frustrated by the lack of support or barriers erected by systems created to sort kids rather than educate all of them at high levels.
In this session, I will show leaders how to use the ICUCARE Equity Framework to boost math success and empower their students to do the hard work of learning. Speaker(s): Pamela Seda

Early College Programming: Providing Access to High School Students Across Our Districts
Madison College, a two-year technical college in Madison, WI, provides access opportunities through dual enrollment programming and holistically supports five thousand high school students annually in several part-time or full-time programs. All opportunities are built strategically to engage high school students, provide access to Madison College and assist students in earning college credit that leads to credentials, technical diplomas and degrees while also creating a framework to be replicated for our expansion of full-time programming.
The Early College STEM Academy (ECSA) is our dual-enrollment program that allows high school juniors and seniors to attend college full-time. The partnership is between Madison College and area school districts. Students are enrolled in a Liberal Arts Transfer associate degree with an emphasis in science, math and technology. This robust model, focused on access and student support, will be replicated as our team introduces new full-time academies for students, launching Education Academy in Fall 2024, looking to build a pipeline for future educators.

Ideas on How to Establish and Improve the Effectiveness of Middle Level Teams, PLCs, SLCs and Ninth Grade Academies
When teachers work together toward the goal of helping all students become more successful, the experience always works out well. Whether this statement is true or not in your school may depend upon how the groups are formed, how the initiative was implemented and what the professional development provided prior to implementation.
When schools place teachers in teams, academies or pods to better meet the needs of students, it is vital the teachers have a knowledge base of what they are doing and how to effectively do it. This session will outline specific steps for establishing, implementing and evaluating groups of teachers working together (middle school teams, SLCs, PLCs, and ninth grade academies). The materials to be shared align with SREB’s goal of systems and practices which allow teachers to work together to provide quality instruction. Participants in this session will learn keys on how to work with other teachers, evaluate their own effectiveness and hold each other accountable. Speaker(s): David Shepard

Relational Classroom Management: Creating a Structure Built on Trust and Respect
Whether a brand new teacher or a seasoned veteran, managing a new generation of students is no easy task. How do we battle apathy, cell phones, and blatant disrespect. Every classroom is different, every teacher has a unique personality, and there's no one-size-fits-all method. In this session, Dr. Jordan Simpkins will present a system for teachers to build a foundation of trust and respect that best fits their own persona and style. He will combine research-based method, pragmatic practice and a host of anecdotes to provide attendees with a groundwork to take back to their own classrooms and establish authority in a meaningful and effective way.

Transforming Education: Empowering Students with Project-Based Learning Strategies at Johnson High School, Savannah, Georgia
In spring 2023, Johnson High School embarked on a transformative journey in education through Project-Based Learning, guided by SREB. Subject-area teachers played a pivotal role in crafting the school's innovative PBL program, unveiling their strategies, known as "golden nuggets," to the leadership team and faculty. In Spring 2024, the PBL approach extended to the International Baccalaureate program, where teachers refined strategies within its framework. Concurrently, the school analyzed standardized test data to assess student growth in PBL classes. These dynamic teaching methods form a valuable toolkit for enhancing instructional approaches. Join us to explore the broad benefits and educational strides PBL offers diverse student populations. Our presentation unveils the simplicity of incorporating PBL strategies like "golden nuggets," sharing insights on overcoming challenges during the initial year. We address the transition of resistant teachers into enthusiastic supporters and outline our PBL goals for the future. Learn how we plan to collaboratively achieve these milestones as a team.

Truth Be Told: Data provokes emotion but has no feelings!
In order to close the achievement gap between various student groups, you have to open the door to opportunities for achievement. To open the door, educators and students have to be supported simultaneously. Data operates as a primary source to determine holistic academic achievement for students. Although it often provokes emotions, it has no feelings and serves as a beacon of evidence to develop procedures, programs and more to elevate teacher-student success. Once educators and academic leaders have data, they must work to eliminate studentbarriers through removal or remediation. Continuous classroom observation with targeted feedback helps teachers' professional development and assists in eliminating barriers. The continual improvement process aids the staff in collaboratively identifying student problems and equipping teachers with practices that produce favorable results visible in the data. Developing a theory of action with the necessary, If-Then So-that Which will result in, schools can determine their benchmarks of success and create data-driven and culturally responsive pedagogical practices that help students meet their academic, behavioral and attendance (social) needs. By leaning into data and allowing it to work alongside us, we empower teachers and thus students to move through doors of opportunity that support them in gaining the aforementioned achievements.

Building an Energy and Natural Resources Pathway in the Permian Basin
In the region of western Texas and southeastern New Mexico known as the Permian Basin, the energy industry is the leading source of employment and drives the entire regional economy. As a response to growing labor market demand, districts, community colleges and employers from the region are working across state lines to collaboratively build an energy and natural resources career pathway to set students up for success in the local economy.
This work means that participating students will graduate from high school with relevant college credits; real-world, work-based learning experiences; and exposure to industry partners and employers under their belt. In this session, hear from national and regional experts about how they are collaborating to smooth and accelerate the pathway to in-demand careers for students in the Permian Basin and how what they've learned so far can apply to career pathways efforts in other regions.

Instructional Practices That Integrate Academic Knowledge With Professional Skills and Social Intelligence
Educators consistently see the ways in which students’ affective development impacts their learning. The excitement seen when a student finally solves a math problem or a student’s eagerness to collaborate with others when pressing community problems are presented.
This session will focus on educator best practices that promote deeper academic and social engagement in the classroom. Participants will learn practical ways to implement these strategies in the classroom. They will be challenged to reflect on how they show up to the learning environment and engage in critical self-reflection, so they develop a personal understanding of the social impacts of how they connect with students and their academic content.

It's on the Hub! Transforming Your School's Faculty Handbook
Faculty handbooks are often overlooked as a key element in establishing and maintaining a high-performing school. Indeed, these sometimes-afterthought documents can be an essential piece of a school's culture, providing all faculty and staff with a single source of information on a wide variety of topics. The St. James High School Faculty and Staff Information Hub was created specifically to house and disseminate all of this need-to-know information.
In this session, attendees will learn how our school transformed its outdated faculty handbook from a collection of disorganized files and forms into a seamless, easy-to-use and easy-to-update website. We'll share experiences, strategies and templates to make this a smooth transition. School teams will also have an opportunity to begin working on their own handbook transformations. When teachers return in the fall, you can confidently tell them, "it's on the Hub!" Speaker(s): Brett Mahaffey

Meeting the Needs of Diverse Learners
Society often believes people are products of their environment, therefore, improving educational outcomes, ensuring educational stability, minimizing disruptions and creating endless possibilities for students from all walks of life is imperative. For such improvements to take place, however, participants must consider the weight of their contribution and have the attitudes, knowledge and skills to empower learners while enduring the challenges of life. MNDL will provide students with tools to adjust automatic patterns of thinking, prompting a mindset shift and ultimately empowering participants to first seek to understand, separate facts from feelings and cultivate positive relationships with diverse learners.

People Need Access to Data
To meet people’s information needs, states must think about how they innovate and reimagine their statewide longitudinal data system — a powerful tool at their disposal that connects early childhood, K–12, postsecondary, and workforce data — so it is equipped to support tools that deliver useful information about pathways to people at all levels. In this session, the Data Quality Campaign will unpack use cases that illustrate the data needs of different audiences. DQC will share the context of data access nationally, highlight bright spots and provide examples of how states can take action to change data systems to meet the needs of people. This presentation is designed to be as conversational and two-way as possible. Participants will be prompted with opportunities to offer examples from or ask questions based on their own work and personal experience. There will also be opportunities for small group discussion and brainstorming, time permitting.

Rebirth of Scratch Paper with Online Testing and How to Boost Scores while Reinforcing Text Evidence
Assessments, while necessary, can mean loss of instruction time. What if that wasn’t the case? Literacy assessments can reinforce strategies taught in class, like annotation and text evidence. Text evidence is a sub skill found in many standards and if taught throughout the year, then students can find it to prove their answers on a test. Scratch paper that is often available on standardized tests can be effectively used to help students comprehend both the passages and the test questions. They can utilize the paper to help them find evidence and support their answer. Students can rewrite questions to help them understand and summarize longer passages to keep up with important ideas. Active reading with paper helps students stay focused. The use of scratch paper can help students manipulate the passage and questions. Using scratch paper while reading in class and during a test can assist students in becoming more confident and stronger readers. Research has proven that strategies that involve active reading and note taking helps students to retain information.

Strategies to Support Student and Staff Wellness
Research shows that when teachers are stressed, the quality of their instruction, classroom management and relationships with students all suffer. Students tend to be more stressed when their teachers are, too, and teachers who are stressed and burned out are more likely to want to leave the profession. In this interactive session, you will identify the foundations of whole person learning, explore skills that can help students be successful, brainstorm a bank of relationship-building strategies, and make a plan of skills and routines to teach students.

Out-of-State Tuition Reciprocity as a Higher Education Access Tool
What do students do when they must attend out-of-state colleges because the major they want is not offered by a public, in-state college? Rather than pay out-of-state tuition, SREB’s Academic Common Market and Regional Contract Programs may allow students to attend out-of-state schools at in-state tuition rates. This session introduces SREB’s two regional tuition reciprocity programs to high school administrators, high school counselors and college advisors, and high school students to assist them with their academic and financial transition to college. “Out-of-State Tuition Reciprocity as a Higher Education Access Tool” aligns with the Systems of Support conference objective by providing qualifying students with career guidance and advisement that extends through college admission and financing. From this session, attendees will learn about transition tools they can use to help their students get the degrees they want, as well as assistance navigating out-of-state tuition while also gaining college admissions tips.

Formative Assessment and Scaffolding of Learner-Owned ELA Strategies
ELA students must overcome learned helplessness and own their own learning strategies. Formative feedback cycles are the closest thing in education to a “silver bullet” and student intrinsic motivation is key to learner success.
This high-energy and interactive universal-design-for-learning session uses literacy examples as a catalyst for improvement using learner-owned strategies in middle and high school English/Language Arts. Participants will have a QR code for access to materials, explore a handout and examples, personalize to their own setting and network for the future. Speaker(s): Susanne Croasdaile Samantha Layne

Teacher Action for Safety and Health
Being aware of your environment is critical. You don’t need to be on high alert 24/7, but you should be aware of what is going on. To take the time to be aware, scan your surrounds, being able to be distinguished from prey or predator can be a lifesaving skill. Our habits and behaviors are what identify us to others as either easy prey or possible fighters. You don’t have to go around looking like you are ready for a fight, but you do have to take the time to make yourself look like someone that would be difficult to abduct, hold up or attack. How others perceive you can have positive impacts on your day.

Thriving — Not Surviving — In the K-12 Space: A People-Pleasing Perfectionist's Guide to Success
Those of us who chose education as our vocation often identify as people-pleasers and perfectionists, and because the K-12 space is fraught with emotion, judgment, conflict and pressure, our burnout is all too common. If we don't begin to think, act and message differently, any one of us could decide to become a “former educator.” But it doesn't have to be this way. Those traits that leave you feeling vulnerable can be the very keys to your success! Let's talk about how we can leverage our people-pleasing and perfectionism when working with various stakeholders so we can achieve mutually beneficial outcomes. I'll share mindsets, moves and messages that have sustained me over three decades in this space, and I guarantee you will walk away with actionable ideas you can implement when you return to your classroom or office. I hope you will join me for an hour that will empower and enlighten you!

Treats and Threats ... Do They Really Work?
If/Then threats like: "If you don’t do the work, then you will fail, or you will never get a job," is the status quo threat that drains the life out of educators. Then, out of frustration, teachers sometimes start to bribe students to do their assignments with treats. Treats and threats are exhausting because they are extrinsic band aids, not long-term solutions. ICU is a totally different approach to student apathy that begins with completion and results in a re-designed school culture totally focused on learning the academic learning standards. Learn WHY it is so effective.

Stop teaching, and start facilitating learning
In our classrooms, we often discuss the concept of student-centered learning. However, it is important to question why teachers still remain at the forefront of the learning experience, instead of allowing students to be the central focus. This session explores the concept of shifting from traditional teaching towards facilitating student learning in the classroom. Additionally, it highlights the benefits of incorporating the CRA — Concrete, Representational and Abstract — method to enhance the rigor of instruction.

Black Males, Poverty, Standardized Test and IEPs: PLEASE HELP ME!
SOLD OUT
Poverty and trauma are all too common in America’s schools. What's rare is an opportunity for educators to sit and absorb first-hand from a former at-risk student who dropped out, endured a mother abusing drugs, absent father and learning disability.
In this engaging session, participants will unlearn perceived fallacies about students from poverty. One thing more important than what you teach is who you teach. Knowing and understanding your students emotionally can yield tremendous relational dividends. Trauma occurring in the early years can have a substantial impact on an adolescent's development, academic performance and behavior. This session will provide the necessary knowledge to become a trauma-responsive educator and empower students healing from trauma. You make up 50% of any interaction with a student. Students cannot learn effectively when they are burdened by the effects of trauma and poverty. Craig’s trademark slogan, GED to PHD, is a concrete paradigm that educators should never give up on any student. Speaker(s): Craig J. Boykin

From Negative to Positive: How to Boost A Teacher’s Confidence in Their Mathematical Ability to Counter Mathematics Anxiety
SOLD OUT
Mathematics anxiety is a ubiquitous reality in classrooms across the nation, afflicting both students and their teachers. As teachers, we play a hand in shaping our students' mathematical identities through their experiences and interactions with mathematics content. Research suggests that a teacher's level of mathematics anxiety may negatively impact the student's experiences in the classroom and influence a student's future relationship with mathematics.
Mathematics-related anxiety in teachers may be due to insufficient math-focused content in their pre-service coursework, lack of confidence in their grade-level content, negative experiences with mathematics as students or limited access to quality instructional materials to guide instruction. As leaders, we must ensure that our teachers have the knowledge and resources to ensure equitable, quality instruction for our students. What can we do as mathematics leaders, coaches, and supervisors to support teachers of mathematics who are wrestling with mathematics anxiety to safeguard our student's learning?

A Dance Party With Labor Market Information: Learning New Moves to Choreograph Your Course Curriculum
Want to learn the latest dances that are trending (literally)? Well, LMI will choreograph new ways for career specialists, counselors, administrators, etc. to support South Carolina’s businesses, its workforce, the economic development system and the employees of today and tomorrow.
When it comes to students and careers, the problem is often not the limitations of data, but its excessiveness. Students need help uncovering and making sense of their prospects. Presenting to and interacting with students and working closely with educators (including counselors and career specialists) creates even more ways to enhance South Carolina’s labor market and workforce, and we will 2-step with you to your success.

Building a Pipeline of Homegrown Educators to Address Teacher Shortages
According to a 2022 study, the United States is only replacing half of the teachers it’s losing. The U.S. is also struggling with recruiting and retaining an educator workforce that reflects the diversity of its student body. Approximately 80 percent of teachers are white and female whereas more than half of public school students identify as children of color.
Arkansas is addressing both challenges at once. Through a variety of programs, Arkansas is cultivating homegrown solutions that are broadening its teacher pipelines and attracting a diverse group of prospective educators. Consider:
The group of presenters can speak to the work from both practitioner and policymaker levels, blending perspectives that will offer actionable lessons for attendees. Speaker(s): Brendan Lowe Brandon Lucius Kristen Nelson-Weeden Malachi Nichols

Navigating the Future: Connecting Middle School Math Students to CTE
Most middle school students struggle to answer the question, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” In math class, middle school students like to ask the question, “When am I ever going to need this?” This session will explore the intersectionality of skills and interests across careers and mathematics. The partnership between Escambia County, Florida school district, Emerald Education, and SREB helped bridge the gap between mathematics classroom learning and specific career clusters. This partnership is tailored specifically for middle schoolers, and aimed to inspire, inform and empower students as they embark on the journey of early discovery and exploration of their passions and interests in shaping future educational and career choices.

Refocus away from referrals, there are strategies
Refocus is a way of reducing referrals in the classroom. Refocus gives students a chance to acknowledge they are stepping out of bounds within the classroom and to change that behavior before escalating the situation. Refocus can be done in a single classroom or teachers can work in tandem with each other to give students a refocus area outside of their classroom. Refocus has proven to reduce referrals in schools.

Evaluating the Georgia Artificial Intelligence in Manufacturing (AIM) Approach to Workforce Innovation
This promising practices session will encompass a case study model of evaluation detailing the successes and challenges of two artificial intelligence in manufacturing innovation incubators and five training studios (specializing in AI-enhanced robotics, semiconductors, or poultry processing/manufacturing) throughout the Technical College System of Georgia (TCSG).
These colleges serve communities and students that have typically been underrepresented in the manufacturing workforce. As the industry progresses towards automation, it is important to ensure they do not get left behind in the process. By increasing engagement and enrollment across strategic populations, we can work to ensure that these communities are stabilized, and the workforce progresses. Research indicates that workforce success is best achieved when interest is fostered from a young age, ideally before entering high school, and when students are supported by schools, parents and teachers (e.g., Deloitte & The Manufacturing Institute). As these programs engage K-12 students, it is important to continually evaluate their effectiveness and reach to maintain success and inform future incubators and studios. Speaker(s): Amanda Roy

Math Anxiety Affects Accelerated Learners Too! How to Reframe the Struggle and Rebuild a Student's Math Identity
A student’s mathematical identity and how they situate themselves as a mathematical learner are framed by their early experiences and interactions with mathematics. Mathematics anxiety can alter a student’s attitude towards the content, detouring academic pursuits and career choices. Beginning as early as first grade, mathematics anxiety can cause students to develop negative self-perceptions about their mathematical ability. Accelerated learners are not devoid of confidence issues and struggles with mathematical identity. With students being accelerated into high school math courses in middle school, such as Algebra 1, our learners may have gaps in essential knowledge that predicate the content of future math courses. Students who may have a positive self-perception of their mathematical ability may become overwhelmed with the increase in content complexity, causing a shift in how they view themselves as mathematical learners. As mathematics leaders, how can we help students reframe the struggle and rebuild their mathematical identity?

Practicing Middle Level Math and Algebra I Skills With a Deck of Playing Cards -- Crazy Huh?
Math classes have traditionally been viewed by some students as 'less exciting' than other core subjects. Some educators are now asking whether the math content or the math instruction is causing this perception. If the above applied to you as a student, and math was not 'exciting', you probably didn't get a chance to practice your skills with a deck of playing cards. The primary goal of this session is to teach and practice methods that all math teachers can use to engage more students in learning basic math and parts of Algebra I skills using a common deck of cards. The methods shared will engage students in an enjoyable, competitive manner that will reinforce learning basic skills. Those attending will practice the shared methods in groups during the session so they can easily implement them in their next math lesson. Total participation by everyone will be sought so you can laugh, learn, and enjoy some math.

Revitalizing STEM Education through Manufacturing Pre-Apprenticeship
Hear about an innovative, exciting new approach to preparing high school students to love STEM and join the advanced manufacturing workforce of the future! The Early College Early Career program is a two-year pre-apprenticeship that connects high school students to paid internships with the goal of employment upon graduation. ECEC takes a holistic approach by not only providing work-based learning experiences at local manufacturing companies but also providing students with technical training, credentials and support services, including mentorship, transportation and professional skill development. By targeting traditional high schools, both urban and rural, this unique and portable model creates a pathway into manufacturing for students that might not otherwise have access to such opportunities. ECEC is providing employers with access to a more diverse talent pipeline than previously thought available to them. This session will cover the evolution of the program including quantitative data and engaging stories showing the success of the students as well as lessons learned along the way

There is no silver bullet for school success!
This session goes over several education issues that schools encounter. There is no silver bullet for school success — it takes many different systems of support working toward a common goal of student success. This starts with school leadership and teacher leaders helping pave the way for student programs and support systems to ensure they are successful. We will look at curriculum and teachers working through PLC's to ensure students are all getting the same things needed to be successful as they move through our building. Systems of support are in place to help students with success. We use data to make decisions on everything from behavior, RTI, 504/IEPs and more. We also look to help students once in high school by offering high school credit classes for every eighth grader. This helps them with career pathways once they get to high school. It also gives them flexibility in scheduling to do internships and WBL once a junior or senior. All of these things combine to make students more successful as they progress through the education system.

What Is My Value to the Teachers Who I Supervise…INSTRUCTIONALLY?
SOLD OUT
Principal Baruti Kafele contends emphatically that, “The purpose of staff supervision is the continued improvement of instruction!” Due to the complexities of school leadership, it is easy to be so inundated by the non-instructional aspects of the work that the instructional side of the leadership inclusive of instructional coaching suffers. When the instructional side suffers, it adversely impacts the entire school academically. The principal and assistant principals are the instructional leaders of the school. Consequently, a direct correlation exists between how effectively the administrators lead the school instructionally and student achievement. To that end, in this high-engagement, self-reflective session, Kafele will provide principals and assistant principals with strategies toward maintaining a focus on the instructional side of their leadership toward increasing the probability that teacher pedagogy will improve significantly and student achievement will soar.

Growing Their Own: Two Rural Alabama School Systems Partnered to Transform an Early Childhood (ECE) CTE Program Into Alabama’s First Public School ECE Registered Apprenticeship
Explore Pike County and Troy City Schools' transformative journey in establishing an Early Childhood Education (ECE) program.
Originally conceived to cultivate future educators, this initiative transcended conventional boundaries. The collaboration expanded beyond traditional CTE, forming a strategic alliance with Enterprise State Community College and Troy University. Together, they crafted a groundbreaking transferable Associate Degree in ECE. High school graduates now seamlessly transition to Troy University as juniors, directly post-graduation. The program pioneers Alabama's inaugural ECE Registered Apprenticeship within the public school system. Beyond its initial aim, this initiative addresses workforce gaps, ensuring positions positions that would have otherwise gone unfilled are staffed with current employees, by giving them the ability to up-skill from their current position as a Pre-K Auxiliary Teacher to a Pre-K Lead Teacher. Furthermore, this Registered Apprenticeship gives stakeholders, who are looking to enter the education field, an avenue to do so. Come learn how all of this is possible at zero cost to the school systems and apprentices. Speaker(s): Jeremy Knox Jennifer Giles Danielle Morton Jamie Rich

In short, you have common planning, but is it working? Teachers and leaders will leave with strategies to ensure collaboration works!

The Drip and Swag: Black Male Students, Pop Culture and Academic Strategies
Black male students are a dynamic group comprised of varying personalities, beliefs and typographies. To excel in school, Black male students need to be encouraged, challenged and supported. Research shows that Black male students as a group have lower academic achievement levels, higher suspension and expulsion rates, and are disproportionately represented in special education programs. This workshop examines and provides strategies to understand and learn about Black males’ diverse experiences, as well as strategies to motivate students in a post-COVID pandemic era. It will also include instructional strategies, urban education, pop culture, social constructs, building capacity for overcoming barriers, and explore pathways that provide opportunities for the success for at-promise Black male students.

The Tale of Two Universities: Preparing Diverse Residency Educators for Highly Impacted Schools
The PREPARE+ Educator Preparation Program is a partnership between High Point University (a PWI), North Carolina A&T State University (an HBCU), Guilford County Schools, and Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Schools in North Carolina. This collaborative partnership was formed to recruit and retain highly effective, diverse teachers who teach in high need schools. The teacher residency program culminates in the completion of a Master of Arts in teaching (M.A.T.) degree in elementary, secondary math, biology, chemistry or special education. This session will discuss effective strategies used to recruit, support and retain diverse teachers who teach in highly impacted schools.

Repeat Session-Strategies for Building Confident Readers
To improve as readers and be ready for higher-level learning, students must be able to use various keys to unlock a text. Participants will learn how to use strategies and tools such as summarizing, predicting, inferring, analyzing, comparing, determining word meaning, as well as other techniques, to help students increase comprehension. My approach engages students in repeated daily practice using a wide variety of texts that are readily available in classrooms or libraries. By following the steps in the daily and weekly review, students are able to move concepts into long-term memory. Participants will work through an actual lesson and leave with handouts that include easy-to-implement activities and sample lessons.

An Integrated Approach to Engaging Students in Assignments That Matter
Developing lessons that engage students in rigorous thinking can be overwhelming for a teacher. Come participate in a lesson that will give students the opportunity to make connections between math, science, and literacy; think at higher levels; problem-solve; and use technology to develop conceptual understanding.
Participants will engage in a lesson through the POV of a student, using multiple technology tools to examine a problem and collaborating with others to find a solution. From the POV of a teacher, they will examine strategies for developing lessons that foster student curiosity and critical thinking about math and science concepts and leave the session with ideas they can implement in the first two weeks of school.

The End Game: A MARVELous Start-to-Finish Approach to High School
This presentation seeks to illuminate the successful student transition process at GMC, focusing on the transition from middle to high school and culminating in post-secondary readiness through our innovative Senior Capstone program. Our strategy begins with an intensive focus on incoming students with info nights, tours and personalized intake sessions. Additionally, our freshmen year includes Blazer Bootcamp, mentoring initiatives and retreats that foster a supportive environment. The "end game" of our approach is Senior Capstone, a year-long graduation requirement emphasizing project-based mastery learning. Senior Capstone integrates traditional problem-based learning, work-based opportunities and a public showcase, reinforcing skills such as flexibility, critical thinking, problem solving and effective communication. These practices bookend our middle college, dual enrollment offerings. Attendees will gain insights specifically into our start-to-finish educational model that not only prepares students for high school, but also equips them for success in the complex landscapes of post-secondary education and beyond.

Three Simple but Powerful Guidelines to Flip the Game of School
Improving the way you do things at your school — or your school culture — must be your number one goal and constantly inspected for effective versus ineffective practices. The status quo Game of School is filled with outdated practices that are not aligned with standards-based learning. This session offers three foundational non-negotiable guidelines that will provide long-term school improvement. The analogy used will be to think about flipping your school culture like the houses we all watch being flipped on HGTV.

Repeat Session-Deeper Learning Through CTE and Academic Integration
It is time for academic subject teachers and CTE teachers to break down silos of isolation and work together to support students. The most efficient opportunity to build a schoolwide curriculum that prepares students for a challenging world beyond high school is to develop connections between academic courses and Career and Technical Education.
Teaching for both academic rigor and CTE relevance is a win/win experience for all education stakeholders. The resulting convergence helps students improve their performance and assists in the transition to postsecondary education and careers.
There are many options for creating connections in collaboration among teachers. A question for high school leaders aspiring to prepare students is not whether to connect academic and technical skills but which collaboration model works best with existing staff and the school organization. ACTE has recently published a resource that describes 17 models of successful examples to stimulate thinking about adding more relevance to academics and more thinking skills to Career and Technical Education for the benefit of students. This session will describe the reasons why CTE Academic integration is essential and existing models for connecting CTE and Academics, offer school stories as examples and resources available to school leaders to embark on a journey of collaboration of subject integration.
Challenge your teachers and school leaders to collaborate to integrate traditional academic content with highly engaged real-world projects, resulting in deeper, more relevant, and challenging learning. Your school can become a model of effective collaboration like the schools described in this publication.

Accrediation Is Worth the "Work"
Accreditation is often times looked at as extra work with no return on investment, and it is often some effort to put together. But there is a value to being recognized as meeting a 3rd-party national standard. Accreditation makes your program stand out among other programs as one that has taken that extra step to ensure the students are receiving what the industry is demanding locally and abroad.
See how two dedicated CTE instructors from two different pathways use national industry accreditation to advance their programs to local, regional and nation-wide success. This success has led to robust student achievement and created meaningful partnership engagement. Speaker(s): Frank Stafford Mike Batchelor Brandi Moritz

Bringing Classroom Lessons to Life
What once was an empty field behind a school now sits a 40x40 barn constructed by students in the construction pathway and is home to a successful farm business that is led by students in the agriculture pathway.
Learn how one rural school has made agriculture an integral part of students' educational experience, whether it is learning about livestock species at the elementary level, harvesting a garden for the school lunch program at the middle school level or operating a farm at the high school level. Students in the advanced animal science courses participate in the raising and butchering of livestock and operate a student-run business by selling their products to the school cafeteria or at the local farmers market. No matter what level, students at this school learn how agriculture affects their daily lives. Speaker(s): Kindra Hovis Ben Kent

Realigning District Supports to Sustain and Retain CTE Teachers and Leaders
Creating effective CTE programs while building and retaining strong teachers and leadership is important for school districts with a vision for college and career readiness for all students. Syracuse City School District has been in partnership with SREB for the past five years to redesign their vision and mission to engage more students in career technology education, but also to support and empower teachers, principals, business and industry partners and the community in the wider vision for helping students become workplace ready in Syracuse. Participants will learn how leveraging supports has expanded the footprint of CTE programs across the district, created business externships and professional development for teachers K-12, and increased experiential learning opportunities through P-Tech models and Academies to provide a variety of choices and experiences for students.

The Administrative Support System - A Discipline Plan Keeping Students In School and Out of the Office
This session addresses strategies that the Administrative Team can use to evaluate, assist and motivate teachers to create a school culture of high expectations where the importance of working together as a staff is critical. When the "School Retention Techniques" (discipline card, wave, sheltering, tardy and truancy cards) taught in the session are implemented correctly you will reduce office referrals, home suspensions, tardies and disruptive and severe behavior school-wide. Increased time- on-task for students will increase academic success. It is critical for the Administrative Team to function as a unit that brings together classrooms, unstructured time, activities, school-wide needs, administrative support and intervention to successfully manage their discipline challenges. Learn "School Retention Techniques" that successfully keep kids in school and on-task resulting in reduced office referrals and suspensions.

Bringing the Science of Reading Alive with District Data
Dr. Merriman Nichols and Principal (Dr.) Alana Powers work together in a medium-sized district in South Carolina. Both completed research on teacher knowledge of foundational reading skills tied to Acadience data.
What they both found at the school and district level was that there is a disconnect between teacher knowledge and data-driven instruction. Teachers often know about the data, but don’t understand the why behind how to correct students lagging in skills. The two educators will share what they found that surprised them, how they approached the data and the steps they are putting in place to improve student reading outcomes using the Science of Reading and PLCs to move the needle for students.

Meaningful Grammar: The Language of Writing
Learn a unique, research-based, classroom-tested approach to help all learners understand how grammar concepts work together in a way that directly impacts reading and writing. In this hands-on session, participants will take one carefully chosen mentor sentence through a logical five-step process that reveals the relevance and interconnection of concepts such as the parts of speech, sentence functions, phrases and clauses. After a quick yet thoughtful analysis of the sentence, participants will see that the process encourages students to think critically about grammar concepts, use their understanding of the concepts to make good choices about capitalization and punctuation, and become aware of how grammatical structure impacts the content of their own writing. Session will include specific strategies for using this engaging instructional method in traditional, online, and hybrid classrooms, and participants will leave with writing ideas that are easy to implement for grades 1-12.

Harnessing the Power of Connection
Everyone knows why building connections with our students is so important, but couldn’t we all benefit from the playbook on how to do it? Utilizing a good dose of humor, the co-authors of Connecting Through Conversation: A Playbook for Talking with Students, provide this with practical and immediately applicable strategies to reinvigorate and improve systems by harnessing the power of connection. With a fast-paced and fun approach, this session is full of engaging content, model demonstrations, and back-pocket strategies you will be inspired to put into practice and share with the other educators in your building. Relying on their experience as practicing administrators, the stories and examples sprinkled throughout the session are something that any educator can relate to. At the center of this work is the premise that at the very heart of education is connection. This session will provide you with the tools you need to build a culture of connection in your school where students and educators thrive.

Can You Relate? Making Your History Class One That Matters! Storytelling Is The Key!
Is your history class interesting? Are the students excited about coming to class and learning about the past? Are you looking for a way to "hook" them into what they are learning?
Storytelling in history and civics (and all subjects actually) is a great way to make your class relatable to the students so that they can apply the lessons of history to their lives. History is a guidebook of good decisions and bad, triumphs and tragedies and the human story. Learn how to engage the students in your lessons by making your curriculum relatable to their lives..... even in these high technology days, there are always lessons to be learned from the past.

Credit Cards: What You Need to Know About the Trillion-Dollar Debt
Did you know the U.S. credit card balances have reached over $1 trillion? And how much is a trillion anyway? How do credit cards work and what is cardholders' responsibility for understanding the cost of credit, credit card disclosures and credit card statements?
Prepare your students for their financial future with knowledge, thinking skills and applied reading and math. The record-high US $1 trillion credit card debt is a result of several factors: an increasing number of credit card accounts, inflation, increased interest rates and credit card account management. While most factors are out of the control of consumers, credit card account management is not. Informational content presented will address how credit cards work and how to avoid costly pitfalls of mismanagement. Understanding credit card debt requires some knowledge of the history, purpose and function of credit cards. And students need to know “buy now, pay later” carries responsibility, which includes reading and applying basic math. Speaker(s): Jeannette Bennett

From Ground Zero: How to Design, Develop and Execute a Successful Independent Reading Program
While we know that students who read more books for pleasure excel in a plethora of ways, the journey to create a school environment that inspires students to read independently can be elusive.
In this workshop, we will discuss the steps to create comprehensive structures, procedures and operations for a school culture where independent reading is a natural part of the school atmosphere. For leaders with already established independent reading programs, this session will provide insights on how to improve the effectiveness of the current independent reading program and increase culturally responsive independent reading practices.

Targeting Professional Learning for Tech Center Principals
The leadership challenges facing principals of shared-time technology centers are unique and not being met by professional learning offered for aspiring or in-service school leaders. CTE teachers come in having necessary expertise from industry, but typically have less training in pedagogy than other novice teachers. Relationships with business partners are more important, and budgets for cutting-edge CTE classrooms look nothing like supply budgets for a social studies or math classroom. Work-based learning presents special challenges. Outcomes measures and reporting for accountability is very different than what most principals deal with. However, most school leadership professional learning available to tech center leaders is the same as that offered to their colleagues who are leading very different schools. This session will examine lessons learned in the first two years of a first-of-its kind leadership academy specifically for tech center leaders.

Repeat Session-English Language Learners and a School-Wide Approach to Apathy
Learn how ELL teachers address apathy among ELL students and other special populations by utilizing an academic lifeguard system and a school-wide list of missing assignments. Student engagement and achievement has thrived as teachers are focused on mastery of standards while systematically providing extra time and extra help to struggling students. Academic lifeguards cultivate caring relationships and hold all students to high expectations.

The Happy Secret for Building Buy In
In this session, leaders and coaches learn a framework that helps them identify their teachers' diverse learning needs. They can distinguish the different “levels” their teachers are on and identify strategies that would support those various levels. In addition, leaders learn a framework that impacts resistance to change. This gives leaders and coaches a sense of agency in their ability to impact all teachers, no matter their teachers’ willingness to embrace challenge and change.

The Impact of a Graduation Coach on Chronic Absenteeism
With chronic absenteeism becoming an increasing issue in urban schools, K-12 school systems must grapple with how to use data to identify the problem of practice and develop action plans to solve the issue of student absenteeism. State guidelines vary as it relates to student attendance, yet schools must comply with these guidelines. According to Clark et al. (2014, p. 12), family and personal factors are key reasons students do not attend school. Knowing this, the participants in this session will identify student supports that will provide educational entities with a road map to decrease chronic absenteeism by addressing key factors that contribute to chronic absenteeism.

Building a Culture of Care While Defeating Learning Loss
In this session, you will hear from educators of a large public junior high in Missouri that established a learning culture where every student successfully completes every assignment. They will describe educational tools, school processes, teacher collaboration and outside-the-box norms used to achieve their goals. The result was a dramatic increase in students' grades, state scores and the elimination of the need for retention.

CTE and Labor Market Alignment: Numbers or Skills?
Perkins V requires a Comprehensive Local Needs Assessment (CLNA). The CLNA requires CTE programs to align with "in-demand" or emerging industries or occupations. The challenge to states and districts is what data to use.
While most will use federal (BLS) or state labor market information and projections, these data focus on numbers, not skills, and job titles often do not reflect the current market. Cybersecurity is not mentioned, for example. While demand is important, for CTE, skills are more important, especially as employers are increasingly focusing on skills and credentials, not job titles or traditional education credentials in hiring decisions. Today's labor market is too dynamic for traditional approaches to be helpful in addressing the CLNA requirement of identifying updates needed to better meet current labor market needs. This session will explore alternative frameworks/data sources to better design CTE programs for today’s students for success in tomorrow’s workplace. Speaker(s): Jim Stone

Deeper Learning Through CTE and Academic Integration
It is time for academic subject teachers and CTE teachers to break down silos of isolation and work together to support students. The most efficient opportunity to build a schoolwide curriculum that prepares students for a challenging world beyond high school is to develop connections between academic courses and career and technical education.
Teaching for both academic rigor and CTE relevance is a win/win experience for all education stakeholders. The resulting convergence helps students improve their performance and assists in the transition to postsecondary education and careers. This session will do the following:

Promoting Self-Efficacy Strategies through Dynamic Tension – Hot Seat
Hot seat involves several students, testing their knowledge on a specific topic. Like “Who Wants to be a Millionaire” – you can phone a friend again and again for assistance. We use hot seat to exert a reasonable amount of pressure on a student to test their knowledge. This is a chance to allow students to experience dynamic tension.

Teaching Executive Skills with Universal Design for Learning in Middle and High Schools
Executive skills develop until age 25, with rapid growth in the middle years. We must be cautious and intentional in saying, "They already know how to do this!" Using the UDL guidelines, we explore how to scaffold strategic, goal-directed, purposeful and motivated learners. We provide classroom-level and school-wide evidence-based strategies for teachers, coaches and administrators to put in place to develop students’ executive skills and scaffold the ones that won’t develop until age 25! Participants will have a QR code for access to materials, explore a handout and examples, and personalize to their own setting and network for the future.

They write how they text - (Exhibit A)
Although the likelihood of students excelling in their academic and professional careers as they transition from high school to the "real world" is connected to their literacy skills (reading, writing, speaking and listening), many are not motivated to learn them. Educators who are familiar with things like receiving "IDK" in response to a constructive response question are familiar with the ups and downs associated with teaching literacy skills. This session highlights instructional and student-performance strategies that may increase students' motivation to engage in literacy-based instruction.

Empower Students and Teachers to Succeed
Research is clear that students work harder and challenge less when they know we care and what we expect of them. Teachers need to be equipped and empowered to handle challenging situations and disruptions in class so students can stay focused on learning and achieving. There’s ample research about effective methods to support students AND our teachers. These methods are simple, but not easy.
This session is a transformative journey, equipping educators with research-backed strategies to navigate the complexities of classroom management. Addressing challenges like non-compliant students, unresponsive learners and the cycle of repeated warnings, the session focuses on five core components:
These strategies prioritize positivity and guidance, keeping students focused on learning and addressing behavioral issues within the classroom. The commitment is to leave nothing to chance, emphasizing a classroom where students and teachers can succeed. Join this session to unlock the secrets to a well-managed, success-driven classroom experience. Speaker(s): Stephen Troehler

Making Tomorrow Better Than Today with the Community Schools Strategy
University High School is an alternative school serving 9-12th graders in Roswell, New Mexico. Student voice and choice has become a driving force at UHS with collaborative decision-making implemented in many areas. When we realized that each student must be seen as an individual with unique skills and needs, attendance improved and behaviors decreased. UHS students are here to share how their voice is being heard and their lives have been changed by implementing Community Schools. UHS has a goal to not only see students through graduation but also through the completion of a CTE career pathway leading to a credential for the workplace or post-secondary studies. UHS envisions a program that fits the needs of UHS students offering flexible hours of evening and weekend class time. Community Schools strategy works! Come hear from our staff and students on how it can work for you too!
Students are not able to attend with us and will be appearing via video. Speaker(s): Lucie Hall Jolynn Hinkle Debbie Luevano Faith Rue Kristen Salyards

Promoting Positive Feelings – Voting with your feet
Voting with your feet through human graphing is a kinesthetic and interpersonal technique that uses position, movement, decision-making and discussion to illustrate students’ perspectives on a question or issue. The activity is more than walking to a spot in the room where students would decide to go based on their answers to a set of questions or a response to a scenario.

The Benefits of Multi-tiered Systems of Support to Improve Overall School Climate Canceled
The presentation is on the Benefits of Multi-tiered Systems of Support, such as PBIS, to improve overall school climate, identify and classify students with emotional, behavioral and/or social problems, and developing an intervention to provide support to tiered students. The presentation will document the origins of PBIS, what it is exactly and how to use practices to improve schools' atmosphere, Tiers 2 and 3 practices and getting buy-in by the teachers and students to achieve the greatest results. The presentation will go over not only the idealistic ways of going about implementing these practices, but how I actually go about achieving facilitating these things using examples from real-life experiences.

Adapting Math Problems to Make Them Culturally Relevant
Many math teachers have a desire to use culturally relevant tasks but don’t know where to start. Creating culturally relevant tasks starts with understanding your students and finding out what they are interested in, what’s important to them and what they value.
In this session, participants will learn how to start this process by using math problems they already have and revising them to make them culturally relevant tasks that truly engage and empower all their students. Speaker(s): Pamela Seda Tony DiSario

Changing School Culture to Improve Student Growth and Achievement
SOLD OUT
Take a close-up look at how we changed the culture of a high-poverty high school in eastern Ohio by improving attendance, graduation rate, state test scores and ACT scores.
We will describe our daily PLC model, our grading policy, our co-teaching model and how we build relationships with students. We will also describe how we schedule our students to include all interventions during the school day and our collaborative culture and how our teacher leaders have impacted our school, both for students and adults. Keeping the focus squarely on what matters in a school community and removing as many non-academic barriers to achievement has been our mission at ICHS. We will describe the changes we made to the school that have allowed this culture to grow. Allowing student course requests to be the main driver of the master schedule along with strengthening our hiring process has made a huge impact on our students. Speaker(s): Louie Retton

HELP! I Just Got a New Student on My Caseload and I Have to Write an IEP!
Being a special education teacher can be overwhelming in the normal course of the day. You are responsible for being an educator to all students you touch as well as maintaining legal paperwork for those on your caseload and in some cases those that you teach.
When new students arrive to the school, their paperwork isn't always available or even current. It can be so easy to forget what the purpose of the IEP is and what information it holds. Join me for this session, so I can show you some tricks that I have used as a former special education teacher and a former Lead Teacher for Special Education. In my current role as an AP, I will share with you how I use my knowledge to help support the counseling, registrar and admin teams on how to best serve and support any our population based upon the IEP.

Mid-America's Professional Skills - Giving Students a Competitive Advantage
For this year’s submission for the Gene Bottoms Pacesetter Award, we have selected a School Improvement Goal that was initiated in 2011. At the time MATC was one of 29 very successful Career Tech Schools in the Oklahoma CTE System. Located just south of metropolitan Oklahoma City, our rural and suburban students often compete with other tech centers for jobs. We set out that year to give our students a “Value-Added” experience to give them the leg up in a job search. We recognized that our role as educators was to give Mid-America students a competitive advantage over other schools in our state and nation. Our first strategy was called “Top 10” because I was a big Letterman fan at the time. We presented at the SREB TCTW Summer Conference in New Orleans and had a beautiful top 10 countdown as part of our presentation. Since then the practice was renames “20-Things”, “28-Things, and “33-Things”, each one becoming a presentation at SREB MSW. It has also been described as Soft Skills, Employability Skills, 21ST Century Skills, and Professional Skills. These skills and practices have become a part of every program and training offered at Mid-America. It is implemented by staff members at every level and often incorporates outside resources, team activities, student presentations, and stakeholder input. It has reshaped our identity as a school and is evident in our Tagline “Discover Your Competitive Advantage”.

Closing Equity Gaps in Urban Education Canceled
The session aligns with four of the five SREB objectives (Engaging Instruction, Aligned Curriculum, Systems of Support and Leadership for Continuous Improvement).
Attendees will take away tools and strategies that will bridge gaps, empower learners and transform urban education. In urban classrooms, the achievement gap persists, disproportionately affecting students with disabilities (SWDs), particularly those who identify as low-income students of color. This training session aims to address this inequity by providing educators with practical strategies.

Connecting the "WHY" to the "WHAT"
In this session, the participants will engage in a learning process that focuses on increasing student engagement by answering the question of "WHY," which is what every student wants to know before engaging in any lesson.
During the session, the participants will learn how to intentionally make learning relevant by connecting "THE WHAT" to real-world applications and future jobs and careers. This will be accomplished by engaging in experiences that involve hands-on, problem-based, communication, collaboration, critical-thinking and creativity learning. Speaker(s): Rommie Vasser

Helping Our Students Navigate Their Student-Led Learning Journey
Teachers will discover ways students can be the captain of their learning through personalized learning. By using data, students can re-engage with skills that aren't mastered. Students can move at a faster pace than their peers and stay engaged the entire class period. Teachers can ensure that students of varying abilities are learning what they need to show growth at the end of the school year. This is not the basic choice board. This is data-driven student-led instruction that all students can benefit from. Teachers will learn how to play a major role in student-led instruction by being available for one-on-one or small-group learning.

Wildcat Support: How to Leverage Staff-Student Relationships to Mentor Students and Improve Academic Performance and Behavior Among At-Risk Students
Nitro High School has enacted a program at the school titled Wildcat support, where teachers are partnered with at-risk students to serve as mentor to the students. This session will discuss the following topics: how students are selected for support, how mentors are selected, reporting requirements of the mentor and how that process works, and finally quantitative results of the implementation. Nitro implemented the program on a small scale this year as a trial study and the results yielded enough success that the school will be rolling the program out on a wider basis in the coming years.

Repeat Session-Comprehensive K-12 STEM Exposure and Education
Today and into the future, STEM plays a strong role in equipping learners with the foundational, transferable skills they will need for future jobs and the shifting work opportunities ahead. Cullman City School District created a system-wide STEM plan with the mission to immerse students in collaboration, problem-solving, reasoning, and higher-order thinking skills through STEM and computer science instruction. A STEM Team composed of teachers, instructional coaches, and district leaders was formed and tasked with creating a comprehensive plan to vertically integrate STEM and computer science into K-12 education. In our Career Technical Education programs, instructors intentionally embedded STEM competencies that industry and workforce development coin as critical competencies students must possess.
This session will highlight the work the STEM Team did to intentionally infuse STEM and computer science competencies into the elementary school curriculum and how we aligned those practices with secondary course offerings which include STEM Technologies, Computer Science, Robotics, and Engineering. We will share ways our teachers helped students develop 21st-century skills by exposing students to STEM at an early age and immersing them in STEM education and activities. The meaningful, hands-on educational experiences that STEM offers will help students pursue a career passion that was fueled in a classroom at Cullman City Schools.

Bridging Pathways: A Counselor’s Guide to Inclusive College Support for BIPOC and First-Gen Students
The college process can be a complex journey, especially for BIPOC and first-generation students. Students are increasingly becoming interested in career pathways that may lead to different college choices. It is imperative that, as school counselors, we help bring educational partners together to support the students in their journey.
School counselors have high student-to-counselor ratio, but in this presentation we will speak about how counselors can leverage their educational partners to provide support and increase the diversity of career pathways. Presenters will provide culturally responsive and technological resources for counselors to promote diverse career paths to students, encourage counselors and provide strategies on how to use teachers/staff, parents/guardians and community partnerships to create more inclusive support for students. Audience members will learn strategies to increase teacher collaboration to expose BIPOC students to diverse career paths, discuss best practices and inclusive strategies that address culturally responsive college and career readiness and learn how to integrate technology into their college and career programming.

Do you want to try something new in your history or civics classroom? Allowing the students to participate in a historical mock trial is an exciting way for them to use primary sources, learn about the past and use their critical thinking skills. In this session, I will show you how to organize a mock trial for your students where they become attorneys, witnesses and even the defendants in some of our country's most well-known trials. Examples of mock trials that we have "put-on" will be shared along with how we brought in the community by having lawyers talk and work with each team, visit the courthouse and have a district judge in our county preside over the case! There is no script and the outcome can be totally different than what happened in the past. Your students CAN change history!

An Introduction to SREB’s Powerful Student Support Practices (Preconference Workshop)
SREB’s Powerful Student Support Practices provide schools and districts with a vision for a comprehensive effort to support student success. These practices can be used as guidelines for a schoolwide student advisement effort that helps students develop self-advocacy, explore career options and connect to their broader community.
Participants will examine examples of artifacts and sets of behaviors that are found — across students, teachers, counselors and administrators — when these practices are in place. We will engage in activities and discussions around each of the practices. Participants will also develop a plan of action to include a self-assessment guide and additional ways to utilize the practices to improve student support efforts in their individual schools.

Beyond Words: Bridging Aspirations and Realities in Tackling the Achievement Gap
In 1966, the United States Department of Health, Education, and Welfare commissioned The Equality of Educational Opportunity Study (EEOS), commonly known as the Coleman report—a pioneering investigation into the "Achievement Gap."
Fast forward to the present: Lyons Farm Elementary School in Durham, NC, confronts the stark achievement disparity in grades 3-5 Reading, with 25.6% Black student proficiency and 72.4% white student proficiency based on its first-ever mid-year academic benchmark assessment. Motivated by a genuine desire to bridge this gap, the school ambitiously shared the goal with its community: “No Achievement Gap by ’25-’26 school year!” After delving into The Coleman Report and studying Durham Public Schools' racial composition data trends, it became evident that adjustments to the goal, language and approach were imperative. As Lyons Farm Elementary School actively addresses the academic gap, there's a palpable eagerness to continue this journey. Journey through the nuances in the school's pursuit of exploration, joy, rigor, justice and growth. Speaker(s): James Hopkins

Breaking Down Barriers to Alternative Teacher Certification at the District Level
This presentation will introduce practices applied by one Oklahoma public charter school district to support over 200 new-to-the-profession teachers navigating the journey to standard endorsement during the last three years.
Through a district-led, new-to-the-profession support model, these alternatively certified teachers show performance indicators aligned with traditionally prepared educators. Following a framework of evidence-based practices for induction/endorsement services can result in teacher retention and can expand school district efforts to increase the teacher pipeline of new educators for schools. This presentation will include implementation strategies that participants can implement immediately, including best practices for support of new to special education teachers during their first year of teaching students with disabilities. Guidance will be offered for administrators providing structured accountability and support systems appropriate for adult learners. School leaders can use the examples provided to review existing internal systems and implement new methods to support teachers during their certification journey. Speaker(s): Patricia Cook

Clyde the Pig Teaches the Class! Collaborative Ag Education by an Elementary and High School
As a feeder school to a cluster that prioritizes service learning and student passions, Unity Grove Elementary strives to provide opportunities that students might not typically experience.
Over the last 10 years a cluster partnership with the high school has grown to include students from almost all CTAE pathways, fine arts, leadership clubs and minority organizations. In fact, it was just one FFA junior who decided to begin a courtyard garden at his old elementary school that inspired a stream of student collaboration to teach curriculum across all content areas through the lens of agriculture. What began as a small plant lesson quickly steamrolled and spread, both literally and figuratively! During the 2023-24 school year, over 150 different high school students designed and taught lessons to their younger peers, adapting their topics when possible to utilize the gardens and greenhouses, as well as the goat and pig that live on campus. Example projects include measuring to design a house for the goat, soil testing to determine areas for vermicomposting, research to identify vegetable pests and persuasive arguments in favor of possible solutions, script-writing to request supplies from a national irrigation company and a study of inherited traits/adaptations of both animals. In a district with no agriculture education funding at the elementary level, nor a budget for garden and animal supplies- somehow a full curriculum has been facilitated by capitalizing on partnerships with enthusiastic high school students. What does it take to get a cluster partnership going? Speaker(s): Erin Pringle

Instructional Coaching That Builds Teacher Capacity: Leveraging Reflective Feedback Techniques
As instructional coaches and leaders, we are often seen as the primary source of feedback for teachers. Do the math - we are woefully outnumbered. The teacher-to-instructional coach ratio typically does not allow for the frequency of feedback needed to show significant growth in teaching practices.
In this session, we will investigate and practice the use of co-inquiry questions and specific coaching moves that cultivate the development of metacognition within teachers. We will focus on feedback techniques that build capacity, not perpetuate dependence. Speaker(s): Jamason Parris

Subs, Novice and Veterans: Building Teacher Capacity in Turnaround Schools
In the times of teacher shortage, schools have been forced to “work with what you have.” On our campus, we have 37% of our staff uncertified, which leads us to be actively and aggressively developing teachers. Our mindset is surrounded by continuous growth and development which soothes the coaching approach presented to staff by the administrative staff. In Texas, teachers are evaluated using the Texas Teacher Evaluation and Support System and we emphasize the support aspect of our evaluative model. By utilizing our evaluation system, we use this methodology as a way to assess and give specific feedback on how to better engage pedagogy, increase student engagement and improve student outcomes. Five tenets and templates are designed to increase capacity — lesson plan checklist, tiering teachers, feedback forms, learning walks and micro-professional development academies. Each tenet creates a collaborative environment focused on empowering teachers to peer-to-peer develop. We want to provide real, tangible and applicable steps to assist with creating teacher excellence.

Using SREB’s Career Academy Rubric
Whether you have established career academies or you are thinking about starting an academy, school leadership teams can use this rubric as a tool to help guide career academy development and the continuous improvement of individual academies or all academies in the school. SREB has found that when developing academies, schools often overemphasize academy structures and may pay less attention to other essential areas. By using the rubric’s four strands — structure, leadership, instruction and supports for students — as a guide during development, schools can address all aspects of effective college and career academies. We will take a closer look at the rubric indicators and share best practices and examples of each one.

What About Me? The Growing Need of Mental Health Interventions for School-Leaders
The school leader is expected to look out for the best interests of their stakeholders, but who's looking out for the school leader? Leaders across the country are facing mental health needs that must be addressed. This session will present techniques to thrive in their role as school leader. There is a growing focus on mental health within schools. Students have counselors and other adults that are available for them to confide in. Teachers are able to access colleagues, administrators, and other networks to address the stressors of their position. What tools do principals have in their toolbox during those tough times? This session is intended to not only inform, but also to equip leaders with tools for those lonely days we all have faced as a principal and ways in which to encourage work-life balance for our school leaders.

Where Do We Build Our Factory? A Multi-Disciplinary Deep-Dive Project For World Geography and Economics
This session is aimed at secondary social studies teachers who are looking for a way to engage students in understanding the interconnectedness of the current global economy. Students will work in teams taking on specific leadership roles (vice presidents of operations, human resources, shipping and logistics, and risk management) in a fictional technology company deciding where to build a new cellphone factory. Options will include the United States, Poland, Egypt, India, Taiwan, South Africa, Mexico and Panama. Teams will have to gather data for those countries including local wages and the cost of labor, which will impact production costs and profit margins; the education levels and technical skills of local workforces; infrastructure such as airports and harbors, and their potential impacts on shipping costs; and political stability and security threats in the region. Graphic organizers will be provided for students to gather necessary data, and participants will receive links to a Google Folder with resources for the unit that can be shared with students. Students will use critical thinking and numeracy skills to analyze the data, and then literacy skills in presenting their recommendation and an argument for it.

Are Your Coaching Discussions Deep and Specific Enough to Shift a Math Teacher’s Practice?
A mathematics instructional coach provides support to math teachers with the goal of improving student learning opportunities to develop powerful math students and thinkers. Teaching math requires a deep understanding of mathematical content knowledge. What happens when you are coaching a teacher who does not have that deep understanding of mathematical knowledge? Are you having content specific interactions with the math teachers you are coaching? What type of coaching discussion shifts a math teacher’s practice? Join us as we discuss these topics and how to build and enhance the capacity of math teachers.

Building Bridges
Austin Middle School (AMS) is an institution of Decatur City School (DCS) in Decatur, Alabama that establishes and builds on instructional bridges between students, faculty, staff, and the community. The school houses the 6th and 7th grade students who filter into Austin High School (AHS). Currently, AMS has approximately 701 students (roughly 24% of those students are white, 29% are black, 39% are hispanic, and 9% other). Currently, 80% of AMS students are considered economically disadvantaged, while 75% receive free and reduced lunch. The mission of AMS is to empower our students to be responsible, impassioned, life-long learners by creating engaging and relevant learning opportunities, building meaningful relationships and setting high expectations. In the previous two years of partnering with the Southern Regional Education Board (SREB), AMS has found a new stride which has assisted in the six point increase on the state school report card from a 68 to a 74. This session will highlight successful implementations of changes and practices (high expectations, support, engaging assignments, and instructional strategies) throughout AMS and explain the instructional design for continuous school improvement.

Communicating About Data: Where to Start
Talking about data can be full of challenges. But proactive, two-way communication is the best way to create an environment in which people trust, value and use data to support students and job seekers.
In this session, the Data Quality Campaign (DQC) will share the data communication expertise they have developed over nearly 20 years. From how to reach your audience by thinking like a brand to how to craft and tailor your own data elevator pitch, you’ll walk away from this presentation with concrete tools, best practices and frameworks to guide your thinking when communicating about data. This session is designed to be flexible to the needs of the participants by focusing on the communication challenges participants uplift as most important to them. At the conclusion of the presentation portion, participants will have the opportunity to put the strategies DQC shares into practice in small groups by developing their own elevator pitches about the value of data and informally presenting their thoughts to the larger group.

Connecting Classrooms to Communities: The Synergistic Blend of CTE and Community Engagement Canceled
In this session, we will take a deep dive into the dynamic realm of the Career and Technical Education (CTE) curriculum at Hundred High School, exploring its seamless integration with community involvement. The session underscores the pivotal role of CTE in fostering experiential learning, where students actively engage in real-world applications of their studies. A spotlight will shine on the progressive utilization of a mobile STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) lab, a mobile learning environment designed to bring cutting-edge resources directly to middle school students, local community centers and nursing homes.
Moreover, the session delves into the pivotal role of outreach programs, showcasing how educational institutions can extend their influence beyond the classroom walls. By establishing excellent relationships with the community, educators can enrich the CTE curriculum, through the use of hands-on activities, student-led instruction, mobile STEAM labs and outreach programs, ensuring its relevance and responsiveness to evolving industry needs.

Repeat Session-Talk Dirty to Me: Debunking the Myths about Feedback with Teachers and Leaders
Receiving and acting on feedback is one of the most effective methods used to improve teacher practice. It is the practice that can create and/or reinforce the culture of high expectations within our schools. If done effectively, it can lead to increased teacher retention and can also impact student achievement outcomes. In "Talk Dirty to Me", participants will embark upon an engaging, fun-filled, challenging, and impactful journey to determine ways to effectively provide feedback at the teacher and leader levels. They will reflect on their experiences with feedback, both positive and negative. They will recall times when their practices changed as a result of feedback. These experiences will lead to a deep dive into those characteristics that led to a change in practice. The participants will then explore the components of D.I.R.T.Y. feedback, a method coined by Kanisa Williams to describe the characteristics of feedback that lead to positive change in teacher and leader practice. Feedback should be D-Direct, I-Impactful, R-Relevant, T-Timely, and Yield Results with follow up. After a deep dive into each component, participants will engage in dialog with each other to provide feedback using realistic scenarios from classroom and collaborative planning observation notes using the D.I.R.T.Y. Framework. Participants should leave with skills to assist them in providing clear and actionable feedback that leads to a positive change in their own practice.

Facilitating Collective Teacher Efficacy to Positively Impact Student Achievement
Many times in education we look for the newest program, next big idea or shiny object to help improve student achievement. However, as we continue to work toward providing a comprehensive educational opportunity to all students, a constant in classrooms across the country are the teachers.
Although there are many strategies that can have a positive impact on student achievement, it is important to focus on those that work best and have the biggest impact. There has been much research to support that collective teacher efficacy has the potential to have the greatest impact on student achievement. Collective teacher efficacy can result in teachers having higher expectations, being more receptive to new ideas and having an improved focus on academics. In this session we will discuss sources of information that shape efficacy beliefs, ways to embed professional learning to best support teacher growth and practical implications for improving collective teacher efficacy within the school.

No Guessing Over Here: The Power of Talent Mapping
Talent strategy is truly a marathon - from the beginning of the year team building activities to ask-back conversations, every month is an opportunity to execute a talent strategy devoted to real-time teacher data and aspirations. In this workshop, we will delve into the world of talent mapping: a retention strategy that will give you a clearer picture of staffing needs, facilitate stronger (and earlier) ask-back conversations with staff, and advance your staff recruitment. By the end of our session, you'll be returning to your team with new talent strategies that will advance teacher retention, robust candidate pipelines and early commitments for the 2024-2025 school year and beyond.

The ROOT, meeting the kids and the culture where they are
1. In my session, we will discuss tools that educators can leverage to meet their students, their schools, and the intertwining culture where they are. Session attendees will gain an understanding of and an ability to connect Maslow’s hierarchy of needs to inform their instruction. A portion of the session will be dedicated to discussing the impact of social determinants. More specifically, concepts around equity and equality and the impact of these differences on educational success. We will also touch on the importance of IQ and EQ (emotional intelligence), learning styles, and counterintuitive responses to classroom needs. These high-level concepts will allow educators to create an environment ripe for learning despite students’ challenges outside the classroom.

UDL for All: How to Change the Game for Every Student
In this session, Dr. Annie Reed will discuss Universal Design for Learning, focusing on how to implement strategies within different settings and integrating them into existing curriculum to fit instructor's needs. Time will be spent on showing how these approaches can be used both on small and larger scales. The goal is to engage every student in your building. We want students choosing, moving and working towards instructional targets. Students can customize their own educational experience and how they engage with materials. Dr. Reed will share examples of how UDL has been adapted into existing classes. She will also provide participants with materials that will not only give them another tool to use in designing their courses but might also encourange them to completely rethink their toolbox.

Ways to Make Differentiation Easier and More Beneficial for Students
With the demands of I.D.E.A, 504 legislation, adaptations, modifications and meeting the needs of students with special needs it is no wonder that teachers with limited training often seem overmatched and confused. This session will review in simple terms what differentiation is all about why it is so important for our students. More than 20 simple yet effective ideas on how to differentiation will be shared. The primary goal of this session is to teach and review these simple, effective methods for teachers to use to differentiate their instruction. The proven strategies that will be shared will engage more students while at the same time address the specific needs of their students through variations with instruction. Armed with more tools, differentiation will become less daunting more easily implemented.

Repeat Session-Meeting the Needs of Diverse Learners
Society often believes people are products of their environment, therefore, improving educational
outcomes, ensuring educational stability, minimizing disruptions, and creating endless possibilities for
students from all walks of life (diverse learners) is imperative. For such improvements to take place,
however, participants must consider the weight of their contribution, have the attitudes, knowledge, and
skills to empower diverse learners while enduring the challenges of life. MNDL will expose students to their conscious and unconscious biases related to diverse learners, provide tools to adjust automatic patterns of thinking, causing a mindset shift and ultimately empowering participants to first seek to understand, separate facts from feelings and cultivate
positive relationships with diverse learners.

Designing a District Walk-Through Tool: Albuquerque Public Schools Case Study
What is the current state of teaching and learning in your schools? How do you know if you are improving?
In this session, we will look at a case study of work with our partners in Albuquerque Public Schools who had these same questions. They wanted to be able to design a district-wide walk-through instrument that would provide an ongoing, accurate account of what was happening in their schools around their top district initiatives. We will talk about the importance of understanding the components of a valid, reliable, effective walk-through instrument that supplies reliable, actionable data. We will discuss the importance of understanding the instrument’s purpose, creating a team, partnering with a data specialist, creating the right questions and answer choices, testing the instrument, calibrating the team and rolling out the work.

After eight years in the United States Army David retired and began his career as a Law Enforcement Officer for McClain County Sheriff’s Department. David immediately realized that he had found his calling and turned around a low enrollment, low placement program into one of the top Criminal Justice programs in the state. After only two years David’s program had new problems, over enrollments and waiting lists. During this presentation, David will share some tried and true strategies to take ownership of your recruiting process and some tools to help you with marketing and public relations. He will share how he has developed and implemented a system of selling yourself as a teacher, selling your school as a great option, and selling the programs offered. Although David takes pride and ownership in his marking strategies, he also emphasis that you must continually get love and buy-in from your administrators, counselors, and students to successfully market your program. David will share stories about success, and he will share warnings about failures. This will be the fourth time David has presented at SREB Summer Conference.

Strategies for Working with and Among Difficult People
SOLD OUT
Great leaders should keep their lawn manicured, keep their weeds down to a minimum, keep their trees and shrubbery pruned. This should be done so you can easily spot the snakes not in your yard, but in your organization. The same applies on your job, business, in your place of worship or civic organization. All of us must work with and among difficult people.

They Won't Read and Do Not Want to Write: Literacy Tips Kids will Do in Every Classroom
Literacy is like the tide, it raises all vessels. The challenge is that too many kids do not want to read or write. In this session, participants will learn simple literacy strategies that actually get kids to want to read and write. The strategies build of student desires for competition, prediction and making learning fun. My goal is for every participant to walk out of the session with a toolkit of literacy strategies to engage students - and this is coming from a former math teacher!

Repeat Session: Thriving--Not Surviving--In the K-12 Space: A People-Pleasing Perfectionist''s Guide to Success
Those of us who chose education as our vocation often identify as people-pleasers and perfectionists, and because the K-12 space is fraught with emotion, judgment, conflict, and pressure, our burnout is all too common. If we don't begin to think, act, and message differently, any one of us could decide to become a “former educator.” But it doesn't have to be this way. Those traits that leave you feeling vulnerable can be the very keys to your success! Let's talk about how we can leverage our people-pleasing and perfectionism when working with various stakeholders so we can achieve mutually beneficial outcomes. I'll share mindsets, moves, and messages that have sustained me over three decades in this space, and I guarantee you will walk away with actionable ideas you can implement when you return to your classroom or office. I hope you will join me for an hour that will empower and enlighten you!

An Administrator's Guide to High Quality Math Instruction: Look-Fors and Look-Outs
Are you a principal, assistant principal or other school administrator who does not have a background in mathematics, but your job requires you to evaluate and/or support math teachers in your school and/or district? If so, this session is for you.
Math instruction has changed dramatically in the last twelve years and long gone are the days of teaching math based on a set of procedures with no real-world connection. Currently, most state mathematics standards require that students have an equal balance of procedural, conceptual and representational understanding of the math versus only a procedural understanding of the algorithms. During this session, we will look at the language of the standards to determine what students should know and be able to do, identify specific math look-fors and provide in-depth examples and counter-examples that will help you deliver purposeful feedback to math teachers in your school and/or district.

Building Robust, Authentic WBL into Your Programs of Study
Work-based learning (WBL) is a critical CTE pedagogy that can facilitate the transition of youth to a productive adulthood through occupational socialization. High quality secondary CTE programs have historically incorporated a developmental approach to WBL that begins with worksite visits and job shadowing but concludes with what the Council of Chief State School Officer’s identify as authentic WBL. Yet few American students engage in authentic experiences unlike students in European nations Authenticity includes students spending significant time in an authentic workplace working guided by a workplace mentor and where the WBL is integrated into the student’s program of studies. The challenges to building or rebuilding a robust WBL program that meets students occupationally related academic, employability and technical skill development needs are many and require innovative solutions in today’s social and educational environments. Participants will take away strategies for moving toward authentic WBL

Collective Efficacy: A Path to Collective Greatness
The power and ripple effect of teamwork is undeniable. Setting collaboration as the foundation for a learning environment stimulates professional growth, and the act of holding school staff to this high expectation subsequently embeds the same sentiment into a student body.
At P.S. 249, we believe learning together and working together go hand in hand. To effectively nurture and strengthen a school community, a school’s culture must be grounded in collective efficacy and sustained opportunities for ongoing staff collaboration. This session explores the impact of collective efficacy, strategies for encouraging and implementing it at a schoolwide level and guidance on how you can start integrating this shared belief within your unique context.

JEFCOED Signature Academies: Using Teacher, Leader and Student Voice to Prepare Students for Life
The Jefferson County Alabama Educational Opportunities leadership team shares how their district designed and implemented a Signature Academy at each of their 13 high schools. From setting a vision, to planning, to facility upgrades, JEFCOED opened all 19 signature academies in the fall of 2022.
The redesign began as a vision to expand educational opportunities across the district by providing quality pathways and experiences that are accessible to each student. These opportunities provide real-world, hands-on learning that is connected to specific career pathways.
Students have the opportunity to earn industry credentials, job-shadowing opportunities, dual enrollment credit, early college and internships through signature academy programs. Presenters will share how they used teacher, student and leader voice in the design, implementation and sustainability of the academies. This session will provide a brief overview of the Signature Academies overall. The perspective of academy teacher leaders, administrators, and students will be shared in relation to opportunities offered in one feeder pattern as the session's main focus.

Maximizing Day to Day Instruction with Data Driven Small Group Instruction
Teachers will learn to use data to maximize instruction with teacher-led small groups. Teachers will learn that it is not about the amount of activities, but targeting activities to meet a student's needs. Using live data to create groups and deliver teacher-led small group instruction helps students to show growth. Various platforms will be shared that teachers can be use to have live data to deliver targeted instruction. Using targeted small group instruction helps to maintain student's engagement on lessons and activities.

The Missing Piece: Tier I Data — An All Encompassing Tool For Excellence
Discover the path to creating and sustaining an instructional culture of high expectations by channeling the power of Tier I data! Apart from traditional assessments, there are opportunities to tap into other Tier I sources that provide critical information. The combination of these Tier I data sources can transform adult practices in teaching and learning. This session will clearly identify those sources and emphasize the pivotal leadership actions needed to build a robust instructional core focus. The goals for this session include indentifying the three Tier I data sources that have the biggest impact on instruction; identifying the three subsets of each of the aforementioned data sources and their significance to the instructional core; identifying the adult actions required to use the three data sources in a systematic way that will improve instructional culture; and identifying strategies to ensure consistency using the three Tier I data sources and potential roadblocks. Q&A time will be provided. Participants will have time to reflect and draft a consistency commitment card outlining one consistent practice they will commit to implementing.

Your Superpower is in Your Words!
How often as a young child did you play games in which you were a superhero? Maybe you are a Marvel, DC Comic or an action film lover and have relieved those childhood dreams of what you would be like as a superhero. Well you are one each and everyday you show up to make a difference! Do we not wear the shirts that may say "I am an educator. What's your superpower?" The purpose of a super power would be how to develop it and how it would benefit the world. This session will remind you of how as an educator you are a superhero everyday and your infinite power is in your words and how you wield it whether you are providing instruction, speaking with a parent, colleague, community member or doing a follow up from an observation. Join me in this session so that we can continue to be superheroes for our students, schools and communities.

Repeat Session-Sliding into Understanding: Using Paper Slides to Assess Conceptual Understanding
Paper Slides are a fun and collaborative way for students to show their understanding of a topic or concept. Paper Slides are engaging and give students, as well as the teacher, the chance to assess their understanding before the high-stakes test. Students work with a small group to brainstorm their understanding and then use the creative power of the group to create their paper slides with simple materials: white paper and markers. Students can then use their devices to video their Paper Slides and receive peer and teacher feedback on their understanding.
Come and see how teachers have implemented Paper Slides into their classrooms and hear from them the tips and tricks of success. You will also see student-created examples and hear from students how Paper Slides worked for them. If time allows, participants will create their own Paper Slides so they can experience it from a student point of view.

Introducing Careers in Middle School
FMS runs a thorough career program that starts in 6th grade and ends with a "Game of Life" in the 8th grade. Students have the opportunity to experience over 12 careers during their middle school career and have a variety of hands on experiences in the real world.
In 6th, 7th and 8th grade, students may choose three different careers to have a 10-week experience. These courses (Discover Your Future) offer the opportunity to go to workplaces and deep dive into jobs in those areas, as well as hear from presenters. As an added career boost, our Technology Education/Shop has turned into Project Lead The Way, where students currently delve into Green Architecture, Design and Modeling and Medical Detectives. Come see how we did it in this session. Speaker(s): Kevin Shupe

Breakthrough Leadership; Breakthrough Results
A school had over 100 fights in one year. Gangs, parents arrested on school campus, teachers arrested for inappropriate conduct with students and negative news stories were the norm. Several initiatives were implemented to correct this. After these started, students enrollment increased; AP classes were offered; and they won city, regional, and national awards, i.e. USA Today, EPIC GOLD Award (3x), Best High Schools in America.
See how Dr. Williams, Dr. an 18-year veteran high school principal known as a "change agent," helped make this turn around possible. Dr. Williams has presented at 100 conferences, highlighted by Harvard University conferences, Making Schools Work Conferences, urban school conferences and more. Speaker(s): Reginald Williams

Meeting Them Where They Are: Our school’s journey into the community
When Powell County High School received a full service community grant, the principal and school coordinator quickly realized the community was hesitant to come into the school. Small communities like Powell County face unique challenges in getting guardians and the community involved. This coupled with poverty stricken locations and lack of resources make getting students ready for what is next a challenge. Instead of throwing in the towel, they took events and opportunities into their community. The school began showing up at the local park for festivals, in parades, and even breakfast with the principal. The results and impact were almost immediate. Support for students increased, as did opportunities, and even school pride. Join us for this session to hear how our journey into the community to leverage resources for students started and where we are taking it next.

Sliding into Understanding: Using Paper Slides to Assess Conceptual Understanding
Paper Slides are a fun and collaborative way for students to show their understanding of a topic or concept. Paper Slides are engaging and give students, as well as the teacher, the chance to assess their understanding before the high-stakes test. Students work with a small group to brainstorm their understanding and then use the creative power of the group to create their paper slides with simple materials: white paper and markers. Students can then use their devices to video their Paper Slides and receive peer and teacher feedback on their understanding. Come and see how teachers have implemented Paper Slides into their classrooms and hear the tips and tricks. You will also see student-created examples and hear from students how Paper Slides worked for them. If time allows, participants will create their own Paper Slides so they can experience it from a student point of view.

Talk Dirty to Me: Debunking the Myths about Feedback with Teachers and Leaders
Receiving and acting on feedback is one of the most effective methods to improve teacher practice. It is the practice that can create and/or reinforce the culture of high expectations within our schools. If done effectively, it can lead to increased teacher retention and can also impact student achievement outcomes. In "Talk Dirty to Me," participants will determine ways to effectively provide feedback at the teacher and leader levels and reflect on their experiences with feedback, both positive and negative. They will recall times when their practices changed as a result of feedback. These experiences will lead to a deep dive into those characteristics that led to a change in practice. Participants will then explore the components of D.I.R.T.Y. feedback, a method coined by Kanisa Williams to describe the characteristics of feedback that lead to positive change in teacher and leader practice. Feedback should be D-Direct, I-Impactful, R-Relevant, T-Timely, and Yield Results with follow up. After a deep dive into each component, participants will engage with each other to provide feedback using realistic scenarios from classroom and collaborative planning observation notes using the D.I.R.T.Y. Framework. Participants should leave with skills to assist them in providing clear and actionable feedback that leads to a positive change in their own practice.

What are the Hidden Steps: Unveiling the Student Success Formula from Raw Data to Outcomes
Every student's path through education is a culmination of unique experiences, including both social-emotional and academic factors. This diversity raises questions in regards to student data and outcomes: How can an organization foster a culture of data-driven decision making while improving overall student achievement? We invite you to embark on an exploration of creating and implementing tools and systems that, through collaboration and accountability, empower various stakeholders to take action and drive student outcomes to new heights. In this session, we will dive into the intricacies of addressing the challenges that educational organizations face, starting with the data. Through collaborative processes, we begin by identifying and defining data “pain points” that impact growth and success, gaining insight on effective ways to use such information for evidence-based improvements. We also focus on the development and refinement of data systems, taking action and iterating to meet the needs of all those involved. Ultimately, storytelling is a powerful tool for driving this change, and we will explore how crafting a compelling narrative is key in inspiring those engaged in the processes to take action. Join us for this experience as we unveil the roadmap to creating a brighter educational future for all students, where data, innovation and empathy intersect to drive student success to unprecedented levels.

How Leaders Create a Culture of Continuous Improvement Using Focus Teams and SREB’s Problem-Solving Process (Preconference Workshop)
Schools can rise or fall depending on the type of improvement culture they foster. Start by asking if stakeholders have a voice in planning and decision-making or do they feel like changes are being imposed upon them.
When the school community is engaged in analyzing problems, developing plans, establishing goals and monitoring progress together, teachers and leaders truly own school improvement efforts — leading to greater buy-in and success. Participants in this workshop will learn how to engage well-organized and empowered focus teams in developing strong plans to reinvent education in ways that can address inequity, poverty, weak infrastructures and the social and emotional health of students and teachers.

If It Doesn't Fit, Don't Force It!
As educators, we must know when to advance, adjust or abort the current practices, use of resources and activities/material as it pertains to personalizing the learning experience for each student.
Getting away from the "one size fit all" is mandatory. How do we know what will work? Data must be collected from multiple sources, and teachers must get to know the "whole child" and their personal needs. Speaker(s): Beverly Yeadon

Mastering Mathematics: Using formative assessment & Games to Build Fluency with Basic Facts
This workshop is designed for elementary teachers, principals and leaders who want to support all students in developing fluency with basic facts for all four operations. The workshop will focus on using formative assessment to identify student strengths and areas for improvement and how to provide ongoing support and feedback to students. Through observation and active listening as students play games, teachers can identify the components of fluency demonstrated. Providing time for students to practice choosing and using research based strategies supports them in moving past counting and achievement in mathematics.
