Our High School Headquarters group brings our full time students together each month to facilitate not only academic success, but interpersonal skills as well.

Looking for a session where you can ask questions about other programs, bounce ideas, or just a comfy place to meet people? This is your session. The Best of Instructional Leaders Learning PLC requested a Round Table opportunity, so anyone interested can come in and talk about things they are seeing at their school or would like to try. Maybe you have seen something at the Symposium you would like to discuss, or would like a break from the “normal” type of session. We are here for you! It will be a comfortable place of conversation and openness. We will have some fun ways to introduce ourselves, and then let the conversations begin!
Virtual learning often lacks the in-person interactions that support a sense of belonging.
