· We’ll begin with our 15-minute update as we provide updates with respect to what is occurring within our educational system across the three branches of our government. (Budget update is key!).
· Then, there will be a short report from one or two VTL founders about what is happening in their schools/locations.
· If one or two attendees want to report on their school/location, we would welcome that.
· Following the update and reports, we will turn to this question: Since education is a pressure cooker (for many reasons), what can we do to release some of the steam … for the benefit of our students, fellow educators and communities?
Please come prepared to share examples from your own classrooms or substitute teaching experiences, and to learn from colleagues nationwide.
