Schedule

Tuesday, October 12
12:30 p.m.      Registration Open

1:00 p.m.        The ABCs of Negotiations with The Perry Law Firm
The single biggest part of a school district’s budget is personnel costs. Salaries and benefits alone usually represent around 90% of a district’s total expenses. Therefore, it is absolutely essential that a district understand the negotiation process and legal requirements in order to ensure that these expenses are a reasonable and good use of taxpayer dollars. In this session, Rex will walk through the negotiation process and offer practical suggestions, including specific items to consider in light of Covid-19, heading into the 2022-2023 negotiations timeline.

                      Show Up and Shine with Kent Julian
School leaders dream about seeing their schools championing student success in all areas of life — academics, personal life, family life, and preparation for the future. But seeing these goals become reality is more challenging than ever before. Kent will show you that the culture you create, not the curriculum or standardized testing you use, plays the greatest role in improving student performance. Even better, creating a SHOW UP and SHINE culture can be implemented immediately and is the most cost-effective strategy for getting students, teachers, and school leaders to perform at their very highest levels!
