Register for our Virtual Event - October 7, 2021

It has been nearly three weeks since the 2021-22 school year began in most districts across Washington, and students, parents, and educators are adjusting to a new normal. For many, it marks the first time they have had a full-time, in-person schedule since schools were forced to close in March 2020. Effects of the COVID-19 pandemic are still all around us.

Join us on October 7, 2021 for a statewide virtual FREE convening around supporting students impacted by COVID. First, we will hear from former U.S. Education Secretary Dr. John B. King, Jr., President of The Education Trust, and Dr. Vin Gupta, Public Health Physician, Professor, Health Policy Expert, and regular health policy analyst for NBC News, MSNBC, and contributor to the New York Times and CNN, exploring the academic and mental health impacts on students during the pandemic. Just added - 2022 Washington state Teacher of the Year Jerad Koepp! Then, join us as we break into groups to discuss how we can support students across Washington state moving forward.

Special thanks to our sponsors - Microsoft, Boeing, Group Health Foundation, PEMCO Insurance, College Success Foundation, The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, The Suquamish Tribe, Erica Hallock Consulting, Kaiser Permanente, and College Spark Washington.
