As the school year begins, technology directors play a key role in supporting students and staff.

Join fellow tech leaders to exchange ideas and set the tone for a strong year ahead.
Every instructional coach knows that the most important work often happens in the margins—between the data points, the formal evaluations, and the "I’m just fine" hallway conversations. Join us for a dynamic roundtable where we’ll dive into the nuanced art of building-level leadership. From decoding teacher resistance to fostering a culture of critical thinking, we’re moving beyond the clipboard to discuss what actually moves the needle in Missouri classrooms. Whether you’re a veteran lead teacher or a first-year coach, bring your toughest scenarios and your best "wins" for a collaborative deep dive into the craft of coaching. The goal? To leave with fresh strategies for reading the room and refining the result.
