SUMMARY:Learn\, Plan\, & Rejuvenate
DESCRIPTION:For students to succeed with today’s rigorous comprehension standards\, it will take more than read-alouds and class discussions.

Plus\, we’ve set aside time for you to plan how and when you will teach the core comprehension standards for your grade level. \nWhen the conference is over\, you’ll walk away rejuvenated and ready for the new year. That’s because you will be armed with a yearlong playbook for teaching comprehension\, along with the tools and motivation to put best-practice strategies into action. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nREGISTER NOW

SUMMARY:Catholic Social Responsibility in Catholic Schools
DESCRIPTION:Join the Archdiocese of Milwaukee for an exploratory workshop for teachers and school leaders on Catholic Social Responsibility. This virtual session will be based on the Catholic Social Responsibility Guidebook developed by a team of educators in the Archdiocese of Milwaukee in 2021. The Guidebook\, grounded in Catholic Social Teachings\, Scripture\, official Church documents\, and the National Standards and Benchmarks for Effective Catholic Schools\, serves as a positive\, non-ideological\, and foundational framework for elementary and secondary Catholic school educators engaged in the important work of forming students to integrate faith\, culture\, and life. \nOutcomes: \n\nParticipants will become familiar with five Guiding Principles that serve as the foundation for educators as they form students to respond to contemporary social issues from a Catholic perspective in all areas of their lives.\nParticipants will understand four main contemporary challenges–culture\, racism\, civic participation for the common good\, and economics—in light of their relevance for Catholic schools today and Catholic theological responses to each of them.\nParticipants will reflect on practical ways to integrate Catholic Social Responsibility into all aspects of the instruction\, programming\, and life of their school communities.\n\nPresenters: \nKathleen A. Cepelka\, Ph.D. \nSuperintendent of Catholic Schools \nArchdiocese of Milwaukee \nSue Nelson \nAssociate Superintendent of Catholic Schools \nArchdiocese of Milwaukee \nJim Schultz\, M.T.S.\, M.Ed. \nDirector of Mission Integration/Director of Admissions \nSt. Anthony School \nRegistration includes: Three hours of formation & an online copy of Catholic Social Responsibility in Catholic Schools.

SUMMARY:Social & Emotional Learning NOW
DESCRIPTION:Create a community of care \nAcademic learning may be the explicit focus of schooling\, but what teachers say\, the values we express\, the materials and activities we chose\, and the skills we prioritize all influence how our students think\, see themselves\, interact with content and with others\, and assert themselves in the world. \nDuring the Virtual Social and Emotional Learning NOW Institute we will focus on key social and emotional learning\, but we apply it to educators\, students\, and schools. In the past\, SEL efforts were targeted to students but schoolwide efforts and supporting colleagues is critical. In this session\, we focus on creating a community of care\, supporting identities and belonging\, building on strengths\, emotional regulation\, resilience\, relational trust\, as well as individual and collective efficacy. \nTogether\, we can support each other and our students’ well-being and academic growth. \nRegister Now \n
