• Teams of teachers and leaders will find the academy especially powerful.
• Team registration rates provide a perfect incentive for teams to attend.
• Every individual will leave inspired, motivated, and prepared for 2023-2024
• Academy presenters will provide the guidance, time, and tools for teams (and individuals) to work together to create school-wide visions and plans for math instruction.
