Diversity & Equity

In this webinar, we'll explore the crucial difference between family involvement and building authentic partnerships. Education expert Ari Gerzon-Kessler will introduce the Families and Educators Together framework from his book On The Same Team, offering insights into the strategies, research, and practical applications that bring this approach to life. Discover why every school can benefit from a dedicated team focused on fostering stronger, more reciprocal relationships between educators and underrepresented families.

Inspired by the book A Blueprint for Belonging, this session offers a transformative approach to leadership and team building for educators, leaders, and paraprofessionals. Explore strategies to prevent burnout, build resilience, and foster cultures of belonging using the BUILD framework (Boundaries, Understanding, Integrity, Listening, Dependability), while tackling leadership challenges in high-impact roles.

In this webinar, participants will dive deep into the 11 research-backed co-teaching configurations featured in Co-Teaching Evolved and learn several co-teaching strategies—plus, integrations that leverage ed-tech and AI tools.
