Join us for opening remarks from Dean Mellott and a keynote address from Christine Marsh, 2016 Arizona Teacher of the Year.

Keynote: Walking in Our Students' Shoes
Teaching is as much about teachers’ relationships with their students as it is about teachers’ knowledge of curriculum and content area. Students will remember how teachers make them feel about themselves longer than they will remember any content we teach them. This session will provide tips and discussion about how to connect with students. Come to this session to learn how to walk in your students’ shoes as much and as often as possible.

We are excited to announce that the Coconino High School Chamber Orchestra will also be joining us this morning.
