17th Annual Teacher Leadership Institute: New Possibilities Through Connections and Experiences

June 13, 2022

Registration Closes May 16, 2022

Join the Arizona K12 Center for the 17th Annual Teacher Leadership Institute: New Possibilities Through Connections and Experiences. They will explore ways to strengthen learning communities through humanizing pedagogy, trauma-informed care, and understanding that the pursuit of learning comes with innovation and risk taking, which can be messy and challenging at times. Through these endeavors and productive struggle is where learning and growth take place leading to innovations that can strengthen our impact on students and the communities we serve.

The Center is thrilled to welcome Shane Safir and Dr. Jamila Dugan to this year’s institute. On day 2  of the institute, they will support inquiry and new ways of thinking about the data we collect and how a shift to “street data” can help us better inform our practices. On day 3, Shane will ask us to deeply explore “calling folks in and up to equity.” Time and space for reflection and next steps will be provided so that you walk away with a deep understanding of street data and thoughts about your next steps.

Whether this is your first Teacher Leadership Institute or your 17th, you can always count on exceptional guest speakers, stories from inspirational teacher leaders from across Arizona, and new learning to re-energize your enthusiasm for the critical work of positively impacting students and your community.
