Mark your calendar for The State Staff Connection Series!  Below is the complete programming for 2023.  All sessions are at 3 pm ET via Zoom (except May).  Links and session descriptions will be shared closer to each individual event. 

Join us at 3:00 pm ET on Tuesday, April 11, 2023 for the third session of The State Staff Connection Series!  This month’s session is a chance for us to come together to share and glean ideas relating to 100% Affiliation and Teacher Mentorship. 

Topics: 100% Affiliation and Teacher Mentorship

Overview: Participants will choose the breakout that best meets their needs (feel free to jump between the two rooms).  Each breakout will have a series of prompts to help guide the conversation, but let it become organic!  This is time dedicated for you to get what you need as it relates to these two topics.  And don’t be afraid to share!  What you may feel is a small idea may be someone’s grand solution.

• The 100% Affiliation breakout will focus on sharing ideas for implementing and funding 100% affiliation. 
• The Teacher Mentorship breakout will focus on sharing ideas for supporting teachers, whether informal or formal programming.
