Founded upon educational studies and research, the mission of Effective Schools has been to create successful educational environments where all children can reach their academic potential. Attendees of the 30th Annual Effective Schools Conference will gain hands-on experience, learn proven implementation strategies and hear from some of the greatest minds in the field.

Before the conference, there will be a session led by education consultant Marcia Tate. In this session, Marcia will conduct the topic of Worksheets Do Not Grow Dendrites: 20 Instructional Strategies that Engage the Brain, exploring 20 brain-compatible strategies that maximize understanding and memory. Participants will learn how to use music, metaphor and movement to increase time on-task and overall academic achievement by providing all students with opportunities to learn. Participants will also engage with research that shows why these strategies are preferable to other strategies and learn how to ensure that brains retain key concepts, not only for tests, but for life.

The pre-conference will begin March 5th. The main conference will begin March 6th, and end March 9th.
