SPED 2025 Summer 1 Day Conference
Back by Popular Demand the 2025-2026 Special Education Summer Academy is offering a one day conference style workshop. The workshops are designed for Special Education staff members who teach in an Achieve, Connect, Elevate, Strive, or Rise classrooms AND staff members who provide behavior support to students in the resource & inclusion settings (i.e. "Focus Programming"). During the one day conference staff will have the opportunity to choose the sessions they are interested in taking and collaborate within their professional learning communities to explore the foundations of behavior & instruction, identify critical attributes of highly effective structured programs, and practice the skills needed to arrange classroom environments and be ready to welcome students on the first day of school!

To register for a session, simply click the radio button on the upper left side next to the title and the session is automatically added to your schedule. If the session is full, DON’T WORRY, register anyway for the wait list. We will be checking the numbers throughout the month and make room for all the waitlisters.
