Presenters: Carrie Sanchez, Assistant Superintendent of Leadership and Learning, North Point Educational Service Center

Register: February 12

It is one thing to care for your people, but who cares for the leaders? Mere survival should not be indicative of success. In this session, school leaders will learn how to preserve their own passion, as well as their own well-being. Longevity is more than self-care—it is rooted in a deep understanding and practice of disciplined behaviors that support. Join this community of support, learn from each other, and leave prepared to tackle the challenges that await.
