MEA offers virtual Quality Schools Summit

Despite not being able to meet in-person, MEA still offered its annual Spring Quality Schools Summit. During two separate Saturdays, members logged on to receive training on multiple topics from emotional equity to leaders for just schools to social and emotional learning. MEA offers contact hours for those who attend our training sessions, which members value and appreciate. Missed these sessions? Check out what members learned below and log on to our website to catch up on our webinar offerings. Note: in order to receive contact hours, you must attend virtually, in-person.
