Upcoming Administrator Academy: Register Today!

The Beatles and their music helped mold 1960s culture while shaping the industry as a whole. Their leadership in rock and roll socialized the era and set expectations for those to follow. On December 7th, Joseph Porto will show how he harnesses the power of their influence and utilizes it in an educational setting. 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.
