RSVP for WPEN Summer Summit
press release: It's time to register for the Wisconsin Public Education Network's 7th Annual Summer Summit and the optional six-week equity study leading up to (and beyond) it! Please SHARE the information below with your community!
The Summer Summit on August 2 is going to be fantastic. We have an incredibly packed world-class lineup of speakers & sessions and urge you to register today at WisconsinNetwork.org/Summit
And the six-week Equity in Action Leadership Circle is FREE to all who register for the August 2 event!
Back by popular demand after huge success last year, we have made it EVEN EASIER to get the most out of the learning and connections this time around with some tweaks and improvements:
- Summer-friendly expectations allow for drop-in participation at any of the sessions that work for you. The Thursday evening sessions from 7-9pm will be recorded so you can catch up on the ones you have to miss
- Interactive note-taking and resource-sharing docs help us learn, connect and take action beyond the study circles
- Each week features an hour of facilitated discussion on the topic of the week with a remarkable line-up of experts, advocates, and educators to help us dig deeper and ask the hard questions, followed by smaller group break-outs arranged by topic so you can maximize your learning and "choose your own adventure" as you focus on areas most important to your own work and advocacy
- Carefully curated readings and study materials for each week are tailored to all levels and roles so you can learn at your own pace and tackle as much or as little as your capacity allows - including a robust professional development track for educators!
- Many districts are sponsoring participation for staff and/or offering professional development credit. Ask your administrators about this or contact hdb@WisconsinNetwork.org if you'd like to set up a sponsored ticket for your district or organization!
This is a truly unique opportunity for educators, adminstrators, advocates, board members, parents, students and all who care about public schools to come together to improve their skills and understanding, and create plans for best practices and effective advocacy in and outside of the classroom.
We cannot wait to see you there,
- Heather and the Summer Summit planning team
