The experience includes 16 hours of synchronous meeting time, including inspiring large group time, team huddles for reflection, and one-on-one sessions with a WLS coach. Between sessions, we work asynchronously to dig deep, dream, and support each other. Join a community of engaged, supportive educators from around the country committed to reimagining their classrooms and schools, renewing their work, and pushing the boundaries of learning.

Agenda

January
Amidst like-minded educators, we explore our own purpose and map how we can live 2021 with intention.
February
We learn from innovators, design and launch "easy hacks" for our own schools. Our small team huddles and one-on-one coaching provides meaningful feedback. receive feedback through one-on-one coaching and small team huddles. We use a project planner to dream big with a moonshot.
March
We take our moonshot and convert it into an actionable product through huddles and one-on-one coaching. We lean in, take a risk, and grow.
April
We touch base with our purpose partner on our 3-month personal and professional journey and have one last small team huddle. In a large group, we celebrate our successes and grow from our challenges.
We understand that proposed times may not be convenient for all participants, particularly those in different time zones. Once we have the final roster, participants will be surveyed to ensure everyone can make scheduled sessions. This might include an alternate session for the earlier time zones on certain days or making sessions recordings available.
