Beyond State Assessments: Start Building Lifelong Math Learners

Webinar Date: April 18, 2017

Maury County School District is changing the way teachers teach and learners learn with a new systematic approach to affect student success. In this webinar, Chris Marczak, superintendent of schools, shared how his district developed and implemented seven community-developed district-wide keys to effectively prepare students for college and career readiness. These improvements are building teacher capacity, increasing student achievement, and fostering a culture of adult and student collaboration. Topics of discussion include:

Creating, executing, and evaluating measureable goals and benchmarks to ensure TRUE college and career readiness
Scaling implementation of programs to assess student growth and close math learning gaps
Building teacher capacity through TRUE professional learning communities and collaborative internal support systems
Leading a district-wide mindset shift toward ensuring lifelong learning for both adults and students

All school and district-based leaders, and K-12 educators are invited to attend. Marczak will field questions from participants throughout this live, interactive webinar.
