NW TURN Conference Invitation May 2019Our next Northwest TURN event, Empowering Educators: Refocusing on the Whole Child, is scheduled for May 10-11, 2019 at the Washington Education Association, 32032 Weyerhaeuser Way S, Federal Way, WA 98001. We will continue to collaboratively examine ways to plan and integrate the implementation of rigorous and challenging student learning and teaching standards, practices and programs. We will also explore new approaches in developing conditions for effective teaching and learning. Our agenda will feature local, state and national examples of promising practices and policies that focus on this joint work.
Our NW TURN teams represent union & teacher leaders, school & district administrators and board members who are working jointly to develop collaborative approaches to teaching and learning to improve teaching and learning. We continue to encourage and support our NW 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.
Our NW TURN locals are encouraged to invite representatives from their district and school administration, boards of education and community leaders to join their teams for this two-day forum. Our conference will begin at 9:00 am on Friday, May 10 and will conclude by 12:30 pm on Saturday, May 11.
