POSTER SESSIONS
Our exciting slate of posters showcases vivid snapshots of improver stories from the field. These posters serve as valuable focal points for engagement within our community of presenters and attendees during a series of interactive poster sessions. Covering a diverse range of topics including chronic absenteeism, equity, diversity, and belonging, literacy, school redesign, student engagement, teacher retention, and more, these posters ignite meaningful conversations.

Said a Summit 2023 attendee: I love the poster sessions where we are able to talk one-on-one with improvers and learn more about the work they have done. It is affirming and allows me to bring back real life models for others to learn from.”
