"The convening was the first time in 26 years of teaching that I have felt appreciated and honored. It was an amazing feeling.”
– 4th Grade Science Teacher
"I felt celebrated and appreciated. The convening gave me time to really reflect on my career and the true reason why I do what I do each and every day. It gave me a newfound energy to go back into my classroom, build those relationships with my students and parents, and try out the new things I learned.”

"I’ve been working for 1.5 years with a student on comprehension. After attending a sketch-noting breakout [session], I started teaching her how to sketch note. Her comprehension now meets her grade-level expectation, which is so exciting. It’s crazy to think that this hour presentation helped me help a student and now she’s taught other kids in her class how to do it, as well.”

"I was able to gain a huge amount of information on successful co-teaching models and strategies. When I returned from ECET2, my co-teacher and I worked on implementing as many of the strategies as possible.”
