Every day, AI becomes more prominent. That means it’s extremely important that schools show students how to appropriately interact with it.
Whether seasoned or new, school leaders need a clear plan and vision to launch the school year effectively. A strong vision and practical strategies ensure sustainable success.
AI becomes more powerful each day. As it changes the world at large, so, too, does it take an increasing role in the lives of students. However, it cannot replace teachers, who have a responsibility to help students learn to work with this increasingly advanced technology.
Let’s take a poll. Do you think increasing visible security measures, such as taller fences and additional locked doors, keeps schools safe? Experts say it’s insufficient. The edLeader Panel “Rethinking School Safety: Building a Culture of Prevention, Protection, and Preparedness” shared how to navigate rising threats, mental health issues, and what it really takes to protect today’s schools and students physically, emotionally, and psychologically.

Tutoring significantly enhances student achievement, engagement, and attitudes toward learning. Well-designed, sustainable programs are key to ensuring lasting impact. During the edLeader Panel “Every Student, Every Need: A Fireside Chat on Scaling Personalized Tutoring with Purpose,” leading voices in education shared practical methods, tools, and insights for implementing scalable, outcomes-driven tutoring programs.
The nationwide teacher shortage has left many schools understaffed and struggling to find qualified educators. Thankfully, there’s an untapped resource that could solve this dilemma—paraprofessionals.
How do you ensure teacher professional development makes a difference? During the edLeader Panel “Securing Student Success Through Transformative Teacher PD,” seasoned pros from schools across the U.S. rolled up their sleeves and answered the most pressing questions about transforming teacher training.
It seems obvious: early language learning in Pre-K and kindergarten forms an essential foundation for education. However, when educators talk about language, they are often referring to reading skills and not oral language.
Teachers strive to personalize learning for every student, but between time, the ability to quickly access data, and individual student needs, they’re under a lot of pressure. It’s no surprise that teacher burnout is rising, and more teachers than ever are leaving education. Fortunately, AI can help.
