Upcoming 2024-2025 Events

PROFESSIONAL LEARNING EVENTS OPEN TO ALL EDUCATORS
Learning-Focused brings educators together to learn how to transform their schools and classrooms through intentional and purposeful planning designed to equip students with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed academically and beyond.
Studies demonstrate a positive link between teacher professional learning, teaching practices, and student outcomes. Research has shown seven widely shared features of effective professional learning. Learning-Focused embraces each feature as a core tenant of our professional learning. We believe that professional learning is meant to help educators do what they do best, even better.
Our professional learning guides educators to design school and classroom cultures that focus on rigorous standards-driven learning, engaging academic instruction, meeting the needs of all learners, and achieving remarkable success.
