Presenters: Jimmy Casas, Sarah Johnson, Joy Kelly, Garth Larson

Intended Audience: K-12 Paraprofessionals, Teacher Assistants and School Leaders

With the high volume of turnover, schools are looking for additional ways to best support the paraprofessionals and teacher assistants who are striving to meet the diverse needs of the students in their schools, and districts. This virtual conference focuses on providing perspectives on what paraprofessionals can do through the framework of Culturize by Jimmy Casas.  Using these transformational pillars of behavior showcased below, each of the sessions will apply perspectives on how to meet the 4 Core Values of the Culturize framework and put them into action in your schools through the lens of paraprofessionals.
