Breakout Session - October 28, 2020 | 1:00 - 2:00 PM ET

Symposium 2020 Symposium 2020
A lot of time and energy is spent establishing a portrait of a graduate, inspiring us to develop students with these skills. How does this energy and vision translate into daily teaching and assessment? How do you report student progress on these transferable skills so students seek feedback towards mastering them? Join educators from Iron County School District where they have integrated their “Iron Essential 8” into their practice, culture, and even their student report cards and transcripts.
