Discover how Kempsville High School reimagined a one-night career event into a powerful, week-long EEE (Engage, Enlist, Employ) experience designed to support every student’s post secondary journey. This session will highlight the planning, partnerships, & strategies that helped transform EEE Week into an engaging opportunity for all students. Participants will work collaboratively to identify barriers and brainstorm solutions for implementing or expanding similar programming in their own schools. You'll leave with practical ideas, shared resources, and a framework to begin planning for next school year—so you can ensure your students are not only dreaming about the future, but preparing for it.
Chronic absenteeism and lost instructional time can derail student success, but targeted academic recovery can turn that around. In this session, explore a structured approach to supporting students who are at risk of failing courses or missing credit due to attendance. Learn how to implement a recovery model that blends remediation, enrichment, and instructional time recovery without increasing teacher workload. Attendees will gain insight into effective supervision, assignment planning, and student accountability. Walk away with actionable strategies to help students re-engage, recover lost time, and succeed in mastering course content and end-of-course assessment
The World History I Locally Awarded Verified Credit 2 (LAVC2) provides an alternative, performance-based framework for teaching, learning, and assessing. Our committee will share the preparation, implementation, and refinement of this framework, which has revolutionized the student experience in World History I. Additionally, it is our hope that you will walk away with the tools to transform a traditional assessment approach, embed supporting documents to properly prepare students for a performance task, and/or implement the LAVC2 for the first time in your school.
