Northeast TURN Conference

Our next Northeast TURN conference, Equity in Education: Leading Through Social Justice, is scheduled for March 22-23, 2019 at Microsoft Boston Technology Center, 5 Wayside Road, Burlington, MA 01803. We will continue to collaboratively examine policies, programs and practices that both support and challenge the social, emotional and academic learning needs of all students. We will also continue to use Michael Fullan’s Coherence Framework as a guide to assist our teams in their efforts to establish shared goals and accountability as well as building capacity to deepen student learning through pedagogical practices. Our agenda will feature local, state and national examples of promising practices and policies that focus on this joint work.

NE TURN encourages union and district teams or leaders along with individual educators to attend this two-day forum. We will continue to encourage and support our NE TURN teams to jointly develop, implement and share their efforts. Additionally, we will work with teams to develop action plans in order to facilitate the work in our school communities.
