SUMMARY:Mixing What Matters: Combining Savvas\, the DMOI\, and Engagement Together for Student Success
DESCRIPTION:What do flour\, butter\, sugar\, have in common? Individually\, they're valuable—but together\, they create something truly exceptional. In the same way\, the new Savvas ELA curriculum\, the Davis Model of Instruction (DMOI)\, and high-impact student engagement strategies mix together to create meaningful learning experiences for students. Rather than viewing these as separate frameworks\, you'll discover how they naturally complement one another to support rigorous instruction\, align with district initiatives\, and inspire active student learning. You'll leave with practical engagement strategies for Savvas lessons that align with the DMOI and facilitate a cohesive approach that helps every student succeed. Come ready to discover the recipe for turning great ingredients into exceptional learning!

SUMMARY:Teams and the Work of DSD (by invitation only)
DESCRIPTION:This session is by invitation only and should include a team of 4 from each school (the principal and three invited members of the school’s guiding coalition).  The session has two primary objectives and will serve as a foundation for future PD and leadership training: Objective 1: Focus guiding coalition efforts on our two primary initiatives — Belonging and High Reliability Schools (HRS). We’ll explore how High Reliability Schools and the work of Belonging complement and support one another as a foundation for school improvement. We will emphasize the guiding coalition’s role as the sustaining force behind this work. Objective 2: Connect the work of guiding coalitions to each school’s Culture & Climate goal. We’ll identify ways to use school improvement planning goals to sustain prior years’ “Priority Schools” work by transitioning leadership and responsibility to the guiding coalition. During the session\, teams will have time to: Discuss their goal Analyze next steps Evaluate their implementation plan Set benchmarks to guide progress through our next meeting

SUMMARY:Teams and the Work of DSD (by invitation only)
DESCRIPTION:This session is by invitation only and should include a team of 4 from each school (the principal and three invited members of the school’s guiding coalition).  The session has two primary objectives and will serve as a foundation for future PD and leadership training: Objective 1: Focus guiding coalition efforts on our two primary initiatives — Belonging and High Reliability Schools (HRS). We’ll explore how High Reliability Schools and the work of Belonging complement and support one another as a foundation for school improvement. We will emphasize the guiding coalition’s role as the sustaining force behind this work. Objective 2: Connect the work of guiding coalitions to each school’s Culture & Climate goal. We’ll identify ways to use school improvement planning goals to sustain prior years’ “Priority Schools” work by transitioning leadership and responsibility to the guiding coalition. During the session\, teams will have time to: Discuss their goal Analyze next steps Evaluate their implementation plan Set benchmarks to guide progress through our next meeting

In this session\, we will share what we tried\, what worked\, what surprised us\, and what we plan to change moving forward. Participants will leave with practical ideas\, honest lessons learned\, and possible entry points for bringing more inquiry and primary-source work into their own history classrooms.

SUMMARY:From Brazen to Bold; Elevating the Teaching Profession
DESCRIPTION:"At some point in their careers\, all teachers experience the inevitable paradox of teaching. There’s no question that teaching can be enjoyable\, even rewarding. At the same time\, however\, teaching can include feelings of frustration and a sense that teaching is impossible to master\, especially amidst an ever-changing education landscape. Although eager to advocate for needed change or support\, a teacher’s passion can sometimes work against them. This session is for teachers who want to embrace the contradictions of teaching while maintaining an open-minded\, professional presence. Participants will have a chance to acknowledge challenges of the profession while learning strategies to promote change\, share solutions\, and champion teacher expertise. Join us as we talk openly about the realities of the classroom while unpacking strategies that will honor our work\, build relationships\, and elevate the teaching profession! "

SUMMARY:Data: The Other Primary Source
DESCRIPTION:Social studies classrooms are full of stories\, questions\, arguments\, patterns\, and change over time—and quantitative data can help students see all of those more clearly. In this session\, we will look at how graphs\, charts\, maps\, tables\, and other data displays can deepen student thinking\, strengthen evidence-based reasoning\, and make social studies instruction more inquiry-driven. Participants will explore a few practical classroom strategies for using quantitative data with students\, including ways to help them notice patterns\, ask better questions\, make comparisons\, and support claims with evidence. The session will also make the case for why data literacy belongs in every social studies classroom—not as an add-on\, but as a powerful tool for helping students understand the world.
