The district’s new teachers for the 2020-21 academic year will attend the annual New Teacher Conference virtually this year as they prepare for the start of school online Aug. 17. The virtual conference will feature keynote speaker Jacob Edwards from Safe & Civils Schools: “Connections over Corrections.” The conference will also offer various learning sessions on English learners, career technical education, distance learning and other topics.
“Our New Teacher Conference, while virtual this year, is always a great way to help our new teachers start the school year strong, with a better understanding of all that our district has to offer its students and teachers,” said Superintendent Bob Nelson
