Dialogue Series
New England League of Middle Schools are leaders in promoting middle level best practices by providing collaborative learning experiences that support students’ intellectual, academic, social, and emotional growth and success.
New England League of Middle Schools will be offering a variety of remote learning opportunities this year. These topics are designed to address common issues, needs, and trends that all middle level educators encounter and are relevant for teachers, administrators, counselors, and anyone who works with young adolescents. These sessions, featuring distinguished educators from across New England, are FREE to NELMS members.
"Keeping the Positive Energy Flowing into October"
Thursday,
September 26, 2024
4:00 to 5:00 pm
The school year has begun, but what happens when the honeymoon ends? New initiatives, increasing student behaviors and demanding families can halt those great, first-day vibes very quickly. Maintaining positivity from September to October can make the difference in increasing student engagement, building strong partnerships with families and administrators, and staying energized when the day is done! In this session, we'll discuss ways to keep the positive energy flowing and how to find it when the grind of the daily routine returns.
This event is FREE to members of the New England League of Middle Schools. If you are unsure of your membership status, please contact NELMS at nelms@nelms.org.
This requirement is waived for this first event!
