CHILDREN AT RISK's 4th Annual Education Reform Conference

November 11, 2009
Houston Community College
West Loop Campus
5601 West Loop
Houston, TX 77081-2221

CHILDREN AT RISK's fourth annual education reform conference will continue its history of bringing transformative ideas and information about public education reform efforts to the Houston community. As CHILDREN AT RISK aims to keep the dropout crisis at the forefront of our community's consciousness, this year's conference will explore "Big Ideas, Big Reforms" that have the potential to make dramatic positive changes for youth.
A few of the “Big Ideas, Big Reforms” featured in this year’s conference will highlight successful methods of transforming urban education, best practices in expanding learning time, and the potential of systemic regional reform models. In addition, the conference will feature a conversation style panel among school district leaders and non-profit executives discussing the possibilities of leveraging the non-profit sector to ensure that all students leave high school college- and career-ready. Finally, the conference will address the possibilities for “big reform” during Texas’ 82nd Legislature.
