Intentional Use of Data to Guide and Inform the Collaborative Conversation
Friday February 7, 2025 11:30am - 12:30pm MST
It is not unusual for schools to be data-rich, but information-poor, collecting reams of student data but not ensuring the effective utilization of the information to guide next steps. In this session, Kurtis will explore a number of practical and easy to implement strategies and considerations for school leaders looking to ensure intentional organization and use of data to truly engage teachers, teams and help guide timely, collaborative responses for students.

How to Say No
Friday February 7, 2025 12:45pm - 1:45pm MST
Teachers give a lot of themselves, so preserving energy is an important skill. With increased demands on our time and resources, decisions must be made to manage stress and avoid burning out. In this session, we’ll examine why it can be so hard to say no. We’ll cover handling the disappointment of others, strategies for setting and maintaining stronger relationship boundaries, and creating more space to enjoy life instead of feeling “crazy busy.” Prioritize your own mental health by learning how to say no with kindness and without guilt so your students can see how it’s done.

Risk. Rest. Resilience.
Friday February 7, 2025 2:00pm - 3:00pm MST
After we risk, we must learn how to rest so we can build resilience. In this session, we’ll do a deep dive into the scarcity mindset so prevalent in our culture. We’ll talk about rhythm, and the stories we tell ourselves about productivity and worth being intertwined. Learning how to safely take risks, and then rest up and recover, leads to improved mental health and better coping strategies. If you are feeling bone weary and in need of hope and rest, this session is for you. Come practice these critical life skills so you can show your students how it’s done.
