  • Listen to a lunchtime discussion about Common Core implementation with Susana Cordova (Denver chief schools officer), Susan Bunting (superintendent of Indian River School District in Delaware), and Sonja Santelises (Ed Trust vice president of K-12 policy and practice and former Baltimore City chief academic officer).
  • Get energized to fight for justice and learn more about school discipline from the dynamite young leaders and adult allies of Padres y Jóvenes Unidos punctuated by the powerful words of the DC Youth Slam Team.
