Pennington Street Showcase (November 10 and April 6 5:00-7:00 p.m.) Our public celebration of student work and learning from our three schools. Students, parents, community members, educators and experts are all welcome to attend. As a member of the ShareYourLearning Community, we believe that making learning visible not only validates teacher work and student performance, but also advances community dialogue around the purpose and promise of schools.

The Spring Symposium (Feb. 24, 2023 9:00-3:00) is an event where teachers are invited to come together, share their experiences, and learn in community around project-based learning and personalized competency based learning.  

PBL for Social and Environmental Justice June 5-6 9:00-3:00 In this two day workshop we will explore how to design a purposed-based unit addressing issues of justice existing in the community.

The PLC Summer Institute June 13-16 is an immersive, hands-on professional development experience for teachers and teacher leaders. This week-long training (8:30 am – 3:30 pm each day) gives participants the skills, tools, and experiences needed to launch and facilitate powerful professional learning communities (PLCs) in their schools and districts. Participants develop the habits and skills to facilitate and coach a professional learning community based on the SRI critical friendship model. The SRI critical friendship model for professional learning communities can lead to transformational growth for the adult participants and have a profound impact on student learning and school culture.
