The most common challenge for schools is how to transition from a culture of compliance to a culture of commitment. How to move from “doing” to “becoming” or from “my kids” to “our kids.”

Schools are being tested and burdened with an unprecedented variety of issues. They face academic challenges, social-emotional hurdles, and political and funding uncertainties. Adding to this pressure is the dire need for teachers during a record shortage, which means schools are now tasked with balancing urgent recruitment to fill vacancies and rapidly developing the skills of a new generation of educators who are learning while they lead in the classroom. Now more than ever, schools need to take a second look at their PLC efforts and learn how to fully benefit from collaboration. This workshop will help participants realize that our profession's greatest resource is the human resource. This is not the time to shy away from the PLC at Work process; this is the time to press forward.

Schools that truly want to “create lifelong learners” must understand the influence that their actions in the classroom have on realizing this mission. Creating lifelong learners depends on more than good intentions; it depends on intentional actions designed to encourage students to realize that they have the capacity to move their own learning forward regardless of life circumstances or experiences. While this truth is likely something that most teachers already believe, integrating practices that build student self-efficacy into daily instruction remains elusive in most classrooms. Creating lifelong learners happens only when teachers move from knowing about the importance of student self-efficacy to doing something about it.
