Linked for Learning, Positioned for Growth…Planning for Change

To give you a taste of the kind of learning that will take place at the Assembly, PEJE is hosting a Virtual Assembly Session: 

School Change: A Look from the Inside

PEJE has engaged two of the most sought-after experts on promoting school change to serve as the presenters:

Stephanie Hirsh, Executive Director, NSDC
Joellen Jillion, Associate Executive Director, NSDC

NSDC (National Staff Development Council) is a premier national organization, well-respected for helping schools, including Jewish day schools in Miami and Denver, to facilitate change, create learning communities, and design effective professional development programs.
