    The GLEAM™ of it all

    When we bring our whole selves to our work as educators, we provide opportunities for students to bring their whole selves as they develop academic identities in multiple languages. Lacey Robinson’s keynote address will share the importance of providing all students with grade-level, engaging, affirming, and meaningful –GLEAM– instruction to help scholars realize their infinite possibilities. We must use acceleration and scaffolding to support unfinished learning and unfinished teaching. We will do this as a collective educator community, learning and leading to serve all students.
