About the event
Dr. Ryan Heath provides a review of the feedback from our World Cafe last year that includes considerations for graduation requirements, questions around the well-being of young people, and broader social considerations for education.
Dr. Heath also reviews the stages of youth development and facilitates discussion and understanding of how Community Schools strategies support holistic positive growth for our young people. These strategies include expanded and enriched learning, integrated student supports, collaborative leadership, family and community engagement, a culture of safety and belonging, and community-centered instruction.
