Major Clarity is a college and career readiness program that bridges the gap between academic planning and real-world career outcomes. In this session, schools will design an implementation plan for the 2026-2027 school year
Don’t just hope for high-quality math instruction—know how to see it. This session equips leaders with the skills to audit the powerful synergy of HQIM (Mathspace) and IXL. We’ll bridge the gap between high-level conceptual struggle and the personalized data loops that keep students on track. You’ll engage in real-world observation protocols and live feedback cycles, learning to identify the “Student Success Markers” that prove teachers are closing gaps in real-time. By mastering the "look-fors" within this digital ecosystem—balancing Mathspace’s conceptual "Why" with IXL’s data-driven "How"—you will leave with the diagnostic confidence to ensure every student experiences high-ceiling math instruction. If you’re ready to turn "busy" math instruction into "good Tier 1" practice, this is your roadmap

In this interactive table discussion, school leaders will move beyond the "compliance" of Professional Learning Communities to focus on high-leverage effectiveness. Using the DuFour PLC Continuum as a diagnostic lens, participants will evaluate their school’s current reality and identify the specific collaborative structures needed to move their teams forward. The focus of this session is on the "right work." You will collaborate with your peers and core team members to bridge the gap between where your school is now and where it needs to be to maximize student outcomes.
What’s really driving disruptive behavior in K to 5 classrooms, and how can school leaders respond proactively instead of reactively? Join this collaborative, discussion-based session where Leaders will exchange ideas, problem-solve real-world challenges, and walk away with practical, developmentally appropriate strategies to strengthen self-regulation, support teachers, and build calmer, more responsive school environments.
Are your PLCs truly improving instruction, or have they become meetings focused more on compliance than student learning? In this interactive leadership session, participants will explore what it means for collaborative teams to do the “right work” by focusing PLC conversations on essential learning, evidence of student understanding, and instructional response. Through scenario analysis, collaborative problem-solving, and leadership reflection, participants will examine how effective PLC processes strengthen Tier I instruction and improve student outcomes. Walk away with practical protocols, instructional look-fors, and a PLC Leadership Action Map that can be immediately implemented to strengthen collaboration, instructional rigor, and student learning across classrooms.

Starting from the learner’s perspective, participants will then apply the instructional assessment chart (Beers, 2023) to pinpoint where a student's reading may be challenged and practice using the "Notice & Note" signposts students need to decode complex, state-test-level texts. Most importantly, you will leave with a turnkey leadership toolkit that includes ready-to-use rotation blueprints, coaching templates, and resources. This will allow you to go back to your school and show your teachers exactly how to build these student-led tools to support your students in analyzing dense and complex text.
Why do your Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) still yield inconsistent results? This high-level briefing provides organizational leaders with the strategic vision to shift the culture from isolated work to consistent, high-impact collaboration. We will define the three non-negotiable pillars of instructional excellence—soundness, intentionality, and agility—and outline the systems necessary to ensure all secondary teams are doing the "right work" at the right time. Leave with a clear charge and a framework for evaluating and aligning your current systems to meet key instructional goals.
Let’s be honest: PBIS has been around for over a decade, and many of your teachers feel like it just doesn’t work for secondary students. They’re tired of "token economies" that feel like bribes and systems that seem to prioritize "being nice" over actual accountability. This session is for the leaders who are ready to move past the fluff and turn PBIS into a high-functioning engine that protects instructional time. In this session we will strip PBIS down to the mechanics and focus on automation, not just appreciation.
