Summit on Safe, Compassionate Learning Environments
- May 20th
- Hilton Burlington, 60 Battery Street, Burlington, VT 05401
- Vermont-NEA has received a grant from the National Education Association Center for Great Public Schools to sponsor a summit on safe, compassionate learning environments on May 20 in Burlington. We will host 125 of our members with 75 other decision makers, including administrators, school board members, and legislators. It is important for them to hear our stories and it is important that they see us as partners in finding solutions. We are hoping our members will build teams of ESPs, teachers, administrators and board members to join us in Burlington. This summit will only be the beginning of a long and deep conversation about this complex issue. Experts in the field will facilitate breakout sessions on trauma-informed schools, capacity building for organizational changes, Community Schools, legal issues and professional development. We need to start planning a long-term strategy to continue this work for years to come. This crisis requires coalition building at the local, regional and state level.
