About the Presenters
Tom Hierck has been an educator since 1983 in a career that has spanned all grade levels and many roles in public education. His experiences as a teacher, an administrator, a district leader, a department of education project leader, and an executive director have provided a unique context for his education philosophy. Tom has presented to schools and districts across North America with a message of celebration for educators seeking to make a difference in the lives of students.
Alex Kajitani holds the title of California Teacher of the Year and has been a top-four finalist for National Teacher of the Year. Alex’s journey—from frustrated new teacher to White House honoree—is one he now shares with educators across the country. He tells refreshingly honest stories of what it truly takes to succeed as a teacher (especially a new teacher) today and interweaves these stories with proven strategies that can be implemented the very next day to make an immediate impact.
