Save The Mavericks: How to Destroy The Status Quo

Welcome & Keynote: 8:45am–10:15am (Friday March 01, 2024)

 

Description

Keynote: Change can be exciting and fearful all at the same time. Doing things out of the norm can make us look different in the eyes of our fellow teachers and senior administrators. But we must not let fear stand in the way of change, we must SAVE the Maverick inside us all and celebrate educators who are willing to push the boundaries of what is possible in education. Join us to see how we can lift the Mavericks within ourselves and others to take our andragogy to new heights.
