Teacher Leadership Conference set for September

Governor Rounds’ 2007 Teacher Leadership Conference will be held Sept. 16-18 in Pierre. Each year, the event draws approximately 400 teacher-leaders from across the state. This year’s agenda will include sessions on the 2010 Education Initiative, students living in poverty, behavior strategies, technology, and other pertinent educational topics.

Early in May, superintendents will receive a mailing inviting them to register teacher-leaders from their district to attend this information-packed event. Teachers attend the event free of charge, and accommodations are provided at no cost.

Please mark these important dates on your calendar and plan now to send a team from your district! The number of attendees from each district is based upon district size. Watch your mail for more information.
