Join Insight's Empowering Educators to Excel Community in San Diego on March 9-10, 2018 and learn how three instructional levers are bringing improvement & success to schools nationwide!
WHAT ARE THE THREE INSTRUCTIONAL LEVERS?
Despite best efforts, most school improvement initiatives are struggling to show much improvement.
And with all the pressing challenges leaders face each day, it is easy to get caught up in the day-to-day fires and priorities and lose sight on executing on your most important goals.
Unfortunately, good intentions are not enough when it comes to driving growth. But with strong implementation systems and evidence-based approaches, student achievement can improve.
When used in combination with one another, the following three instructional levers can provide you and your educators with the tools and systems needed to improve student achievement.
If you want to get the traction and wins you've been looking for when it comes to school improvement, join us in San Diego and walk away with best practices on how to implement these three levers in your schools.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND #NELW18
WHY ATTEND #NELW18
This two-day event will be filled with breakout sessions, inspiring talks, and networking opportunities.
"As a district leader, the Workshop will provide our instructional team with a unique, deliberate opportunity to learn and investigate the latest practices in what really works in improving student achievement.
I look forward to sharing what's working for us and taking back what we've learned from others.
The opportunity to develop a 'network in practice' is a wonderful chance to both provide and receive high-quality feedback and ideas in today’s ever-changing educational landscape.
The Workshop will provide the time, space, and expertise to accomplish this.”
Nate Davis
Assistant Superintendent of Schools

PANEL #1: "Equity, Equality, and Excellence: From Policy to Practice"
Description: In the landscape of ever-changing education policy and shrinking budgets, leaders in districts nationwide are scrambling to find ways to ensure all students—regardless of race, gender, socio-economic background, and family status—have what they need to be successful. Hear from several leaders on how they are keeping pace with federal and state policy changes and bringing about consistent improvement with fewer dollars spent and ensuring equity across their schools.
PANEL #2: “STEP into Effective PLCs: Empowering Teachers & Improving Practice"
Description: Beginning in 2013, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Kitamba, American Institutes for Research, and Insight Education Group worked together to find a solution to the pressing problems that PLCs have been wrestling with since the 1990s entitled the Supporting Teacher Effectiveness Project. STEP is a PLC model that guides educators in identifying the bright spots—assets—that can be leveraged and scaled toward greater improvement and replication. Hear from practitioners implementing STEP in their schools, including examples of implementations and lessons learned.
