Morning Session: Closing the Attitude Gap

Principal Kafele asserts that one of the greatest difficulties to closing the achievement gap is the assumption that achievement is the problem. He says the achievement gap is a consequence of the failure to adequately address “attitude.” In this session, he’ll provide attendees with strategies for closing the attitude gap in their classrooms.

Afternoon Session: Critical Questions for Inspiring Classroom Excellence

Principal Kafele will take attendees on an empowering, introspective journey where he will challenge them to look critically within themselves and their practices through a series of self-reflective questions relative to bringing their best selves to the classroom each and every day.
