2024 CPS Summer Leadership Institute (SLI)

Description: School leaders will access and plan with customizable resources for engaging parents on students' academic progress. Participants will learn about the resources, their purpose, and how to use them. They will then have time to explore them and consider their application to their school community. Finally, leaders will collaborate with peers to develop a plan for how to use them to increase school coherence in assessment & grading and strengthen the partnerships between educators and families.
