In this era of flexibility under ESSA, it is critical to re-engage in deep conversations around the purpose of public education with communities, parents, districts and states and develop a 21st<\/sup> century definition of student success. What are the processes and steps to engage in meaningful and ongoing conversations with communities, parents and educators to redefine student success?<\/p>\n

Learn about efforts nationwide to redefine student success through Profile of a Graduate work and the importance of energizing communities, educators, students and parents in a new conversation on the purpose of K-12 education. The focus is to realize the opportunities in the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) for states and localities to create a 21st<\/sup> century definition of student success. The intent of Profile of a Graduate initiatives in each community is to establish deep support for modernizing teaching and learning and to support student mastery of knowledge and skills needed for future success.<\/p>\n

This webinar is to inform the field about why it is important for K-12 schools and districts to lead conversations in their communities around a Profile of a Graduate and how to get started. Learn about tools and resources available to support schools and districts in the process of redefining student success to align to students’ college- and career-readiness. Presenters will focus on the steps and processes to better engage communities and a range of stakeholders, including students, parents, teachers, community leaders, workforce leaders and higher education. This webinar will share lessons learned from EdLeaders21, a non-profit working directly with schools and districts that have already adopted a new Profile of a Graduate.<\/p>\n

It is time to begin a new conversation in our communities asking, “What does it take for students to succeed in college, career and life?”<\/p>\n

View this archived webinar to learn how education leaders can develop a more meaningful, 21st<\/sup> century definition of student success for their school or district through the Profile of a Graduate<\/a> initiative, and learn ways you can get started in this work.<\/p>\n
