Fall Meeting Pre-Conference Proposals Due Next Week

Do you have an idea for a pre-conference session for the 2019 Fall Meeting that you would like to offer? Are you using SRI tools and practices in exciting ways that you’d like to share with others? Pre-conference sessions may be full or half-day and can be on-site in one of our conference rooms or off-site at a school or other location within the city.

Pre-conference sessions take place on Wednesday, the day before the start of Fall Meeting and provide an opportunity for participants to extend their learning while in Cambridge.

There is about a week left to submit your proposal! All pre-conference proposals are due by March 29th, 2019, and selections will be made by April 12th, 2019.

If you are interested in proposing a pre-conference session, please utilize the pre-conference proposal form, and submit it no later than March 29th, 2019. Have a request for a pre-conference that you would like to attend? Email Deirdre Williams (deirdre@schoolreforminitiative.org) and she will try to find facilitators to prepare a pre-conference session that meets your needs!


Facilitation Opportunity at COSEBOC Pre-Conference to Gathering of Leaders

Our partners at COSEBOC are looking for some SRI facilitators to support their pre-conference session during their annual Gathering of Leaders. The day before the conference, COSEBOC hosts a ‘For Leaders Only’ session for school and district leaders. They are looking for a few SRI facilitators to support and help facilitate table conversations.

As a thank you, facilitators will receive a discounted registration fee of $250, and free attendance at the ‘For Leaders Only’ session. If you are already planning on attending the Gathering of Leaders this is a great opportunity to support the organization and receive a discount!

If you are interested, or if you have questions/need more information, please email Gene Thompson-Grove.
