DESCRIPTION
CCEE and CCSESA invite county offices of education, districts, charter schools, and private schools to join this overview of the registration and data submission process for the School Reopening Status Reporting, as required in the January 14 Public Health Directive on Reporting Details of In-Person Instruction (also Appendix 4 of the Consolidated School Reopening Guidance).
Many schools are making decisive actions to accelerate learning, improve assessments, attendance, and better engage students. In partnership with Creative Leadership Solutions, CCEE is offering a FREE, three-part synchronous series that will focus on understanding, identifying, evaluating, and applying formative assessment practices to accelerate learning. In this session, participants will: 1) learn about effective practices with the greatest impact on student achievement, 2) identify barriers to improved practices, 3) evaluate alternative practices to accelerate learning, and 4) apply the learning to their individual contexts.
In addition to the synchronous sessions, Creative Leadership Solutions Associates will be available to provide follow-up support to participants to discuss and/or support the implementation of all learning by phone, email, or video conferencing.

The global pandemic will continue to affect schools long after schools reopen. Changes will be required in schedules, student support, faculty support, state standards, and assessments. In this session, participants will: 1) learn about the new model of change leadership, 2) identify the failures of previous change leadership models, 3) evaluate alternative leadership practices, and 4) apply the new model of change leadership to their individual contexts.
The global pandemic has left in its wake traumatized students, families, and educators and fear has been the dominant emotion. The essence of fearless schools is the building of psychologically safe environments where students and educators can learn together, make mistakes with transparency, learn from those mistakes, and engage in consistent innovation, experimentation, and learning. In this session, participants will 1) learn about the impact of psychological safety on learning and leadership, 2) identify the barriers to psychological safety and fearless schools, 3) evaluate alternative practices that lead to or detract from fearless schools, and 4) apply the learning to their individual contexts.
Dr. Michael Fullan is the Global Leadership Director of New Pedagogies for Deep Learning, former Dean of the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE) af the University of Toronto, and a worldwide authority on educational reform with a mandate of helping to achieve the moral purpose of all children learning. Dr. Fullan has been deeply embedded in the work of California’s school and district systems to focus on equitable access, opportunity, and outcomes for all of our students.
In this two-part talk, Dr. Fullan walks us through the new drivers of reform of whole system success, beginning with the connection between well-being has to learning. We revisit his work around systems coherence and the right vs. wrong drivers of systems reform, both of which were pivotal in framing the work of California’s new accountability system and its system-wide approach to support student success. Dr. Fullan’s keynote ends with a reflection on the purpose of the education system today.

As part of the continuing Leading Forward effort to support quality programming in summer 2021, the California Collaborative for Education Excellence convened an expert panel to discuss examples of district innovation, staffing solutions, key elements to consider when planning summer programming, and opportunities for district/community-based organization collaboration.
Developed in partnership with the Center for Teaching Quality (CTQ), this learning path will explore strategies that support students and staff with readiness to learn, develop, and excel. Modules offer strategies for explicitly supporting social-emotional learning (SEL) for students, building readiness to learn and equitable opportunity through nonacademic student supports, and sustaining practitioners’ own wellbeing so they can be more present for students. Classroom-based professionals and those who support them will benefit most from these modules.
Developed in partnership with Center for Teaching Quality (CTQ), this learning path will focus specifically on strategies for assessing student- and classroom-level needs for academic or socio-emotional supports. The emphasis is on helping students recover from COVID-related learning loss, disruption, or trauma and strategies allow for implementation in virtual, hybrid, or in-person classrooms. However, concepts apply to ongoing practice in any context or learning mode. Leaders working as teachers, support professionals, or other roles focused on classroom-level supports will benefit from this learning path. Coaches, school administrators, and others charged with supporting teachers will likely also benefit.
Developed in partnership with EPF for Teaching, this learning path will explore the SOAR Mathematical Discussions teaching frame to help participants design supported opportunities for all students to engage in discussions about mathematical content with diverse partners. Included are several videos, handouts, manuals, and other resources.
Developed in partnership with EPF for Teaching, this learning path will explore the SOAR Teaching Frames for Literacy, which provide a unique approach to planning, implementing, and elevating instruction that drives improvement in teaching and learning. SOAR focuses on the high-impact teaching practices that research identifies as key to student learning.
