Learning Community Series 2024-25

Presented by the CAIS Commission on School Growth and Collaboration

The CAIS Learning Community Series highlights the innovative work happening in our schools, and focuses on student connection and learning. The goal of the community series is to form trusted relationships outside of your school in twice per month meetings. During each session we will host short presentations introducing new models in education which includes sharing best practices, lesson plans, innovative projects, and pedagogical techniques that have had a significant impact on students and schools. Sessions include time to discuss and collaborate with peers.

COST (reflects member pricing): $95 individual all-access pass  ||  $465 all-school, all-access pass ||  $45 per-session

Notes for the All-School Pass:

• Schools that choose the all-school, all-access pass should designate one faculty member or administrator to serve as the contact point at the school to disseminate the information and registration link to your school community for the sessions as they become available. We encourage schools to make note of which employees would like to attend each session so that they have a record at the end of the school year of numbers who have benefitted from the All School Pass.
• Each member of the school community will then be responsible to register themselves for each session. The registration page for each session will indicate the passcode for registrants whose school has an All-School Pass.
• Once registered for a session, each registrant will receive Zoom connection details the day of the session directly from Zoom.
