Changing School Cultures One Conversation at a Time

November 8, 2024, 9 a.m. - 12 p.m.

Culture is the absolute bedrock of all school success. The issue is that too many people conflate culture and climate and focus on being nice instead of kind. Kindness means having the courage to engage in the meaningful conversations that will move individuals, teams, schools, and districts forward. This academy will provide the practical tools necessary to do just this.

IPA will deliver this ONLINE training through Zoom. To participate in the virtual workshop, you must have Internet access, a web camera, and a microphone.

You will receive the Zoom training link, handouts and detailed instructions in the registration confirmation from netforum@ilprincipals.org. If you don’t see the confirmation in your inbox after registering, please email workshops@ilprincipals.org.
