What can the Beatles Teach us About Education?

Do you need help with keeping up with current educational practices? If you're finding that your current practices aren't quite working, don't just let it be. It's time to come together with fellow educators and learn how to create a shift in education culture! On December 7th, the ROE is excited to virtually host Joseph Porto for AA #1355: Leading Major Change in Education: What the Beatles Can Teach Us. This session will take place from 9am - noon.

What can the study of the world's greatest band teach us about leadership and excellence in education? The goal of the day is to answer that question with specific knowledge, strategies, and skills to incorporate into your professional practice.
