What Does Your School’s Master Schedule Say About Equity and Flexibility?
Monday, January 25 from 3:30-4:15 pm
Your school’s master schedule determines how core resources are allocated and directs the student experience. Effective education gives students equal access to the classes they need to pursue their dreams. Building a flexible, student-centered master schedule that can easily transition between in-person, virtual, and hybrid is more critical than ever.
Presented by:
- Dr. Mark Weatherly, New Caney ISD Director of Secondary Instruction

Achieving True Instructional Leadership Through Collaboration
Monday, January 25 from 3:30-4:15 pm
Allowing schools and teachers to independently unpack standards and build curriculum roadmaps results in extreme redundancy and inconsistencies between grades and across campuses. Implementing a collaborative approach saves teachers time to focus on shared instructional understanding. Empower your leaders and ensure instructional consistency throughout your district with these proven strategies.
Presented by:
- Dr. Laura Stout, Corpus Christi ISD Executive Director for School Leadership
- Jennifer Knipp, Mineola ISD Director of Curriculum and Instruction
- Dr. Kim Tunnell, Education Advanced Vice President of Curriculum Management
Instructional Transparency and Community-Based Accountability Systems
Tuesday, January 26 from 10:30-11:15 am
Research shows that students whose parents are engaged in the learning process have a more successful education experience. The truth is, some parents know what their students are learning, but few know what they SHOULD learn. Curriculum transparency and easily accessible school related information engages parents and supports student achievement.
