The 90/90/90 Schools? Summit Version 2.0

February 8-9, 2012
Orlando, FL - Wyndam Orlando Resort, 8001 International Drive, Orlando, FL 32819
Tuition: $599 per person Register

Conference Description:

The 90/90/90 Schools? study, conducted by Dr. Douglas B. Reeves, has made a lasting impact on the way we educate students for over the past decade. Primarily, the notions that ALL children can learn, and every educator can reach them, have changed the way schools do business for years to come. Today, the findings of this monumental research still hold true and are supported by the work of many other experts in the field (including John Hattie and his work with Visible Learning, Kati Haycock and Ed Trust, and Linda Darling-Hammond).

In this second version of the 90/90/90 Schools? Summit, attendees will learn how to implement practices that have made 90/90/90 Schools so successful. Douglas B. Reeves will present two motivating keynote sessions to set the stage for success. Breakout sessions allow attendees to customize their experience and include the following topics:

The 90/90/90 School? Improvement Model
Involving the Student in the School Improvement Process
Leadership: Monitoring What Matters Most
Data Teams: A Model for Collaboration and Constructive Use of Data

Attendees will leave this Summit with a plan for implementing practices that create a culture of student success and will leave educators with a renewed sense of efficacy. Attendees are encouraged to have a working knowledge of the 90/90/90 Schools? Study prior to attending this Summit. Teams are encouraged to attend in order to get the most out of the breakout sessions and facilitated planning time.
