[YEP-DC] EVENT: The Education Trust 2014 National Conference Nov. 13-14

Join The Education Trust for its 2014 national conference, a two-day event packed with plenary speakers, more than 40 breakout sessions, and networking opportunities. The conference draws a mix of educators, advocates, and researchers, all focused on closing opportunity and achievement gaps for students. A sampling of what you can expect:

• Get insights from research on African American and Latino male academic success from the University of Pennsylvania's Dr. Shaun Harper.
• Learn from the University of Michigan's Dr. Deborah Ball how to make good teaching great.
• Hear district leaders Susana Cordova (Denver chief schools officer), Susan Bunting (Indian River School District superintendent), and Sonja Santelises (Ed Trust vice president of K-12 policy and practice and former Baltimore City chief academic officer) talk about Common Core implementation during a lunchtime discussion.
• Get energized to fight for justice and learn more about school discipline from the dynamite young leaders and adult allies of Padres y Jóvenes Unidos, punctuated by the powerful words of the DC Youth Slam Team.
