Graduation Equity Webinars help growth minded educators and education advocates to learn from Washington districts who are closing opportunity gaps. Using OSPI data and experience from practitioners, Graduation Equity Webinars reveal the systems that drive success, an equity focus, and the key strategies that are getting students to graduation.
Graduation Equity Webinars link research and best practices featuring education experts and Washington practitioners with findings on equity in graduation, such as attendance, ninth graders on-track, community partnerships, and building strong teams. The goal of Graduation Equity Webinars isn't merely to inform, but to give you insights to apply at schools, in your offices, and throughout your life.
Education is ultimately about providing students with the skills they need to become successful in careers, in communities, and in their lives. Dr. Chan Hellman’s research on Hope Science defines hope as the belief that your future will be better than today and you have the power to make it so. Using tools developed to increase hope, Dr. Hellman can help you and the students you know to find pathways and the willpower needed to accomplish your goals. We’ve invited Dr. Hellman to share connections between Hope Science and Healing Centered Engagement practices and we’ll have a panel of practitioners to talk about how they’re applying these strategies. We always offer free Clock Hours for your participation and resources to support your learning.
