Keynote

"Struggle-opoly"

Lacey Robinson, President and Chief Executive Officer at UnboundEd

America’s students experienced a seismic interruption in their education. Lacey Robinson shares how we can reimagine teaching and learning to ensure ALL students are prepared for life post-pandemic by providing instruction that is GLEAM™ (Grade-Level, Engaging, Affirming, and Meaningful). She challenges us as school system leaders and classroom practitioners to update the operating systems we all use in the form of mindsets, skills and behaviors in service of students’ academic, ethnic, racial, and linguistic identities.

Opening remarks by Ethan Mitnick, President of SchoolKit.
