Essential Question: How do we structure our work as bold mathematics leaders to lead effective, equitable mathematics programs?
- Day 2 Focus: Culturally Relevant Leadership
Essential Question: What actions can we take as culturally relevant leaders to support all students learning mathematics at high levels?

- A resource packet of the materials for the three days of learning
Join us as an individual or bring your team to expand your professional learning network while working virtually using the wealth of materials provided to develop a strategic plan personalized to your vision for math instruction and coaching. Mathematics leaders will leave equipped to create a shared vision for mathematics instruction, implement high-leverage teaching strategies, develop coaching structures, and monitor student learning for ALL students through an equity lens. If you are a teacher leader, coach, department chair, administrator or supervisor you won’t want to miss out on these three days of learning!
