See the frequently asked questions for dining options.?: 12:30 PM - 01:30 PMSEL and Special EducationHost: Tiffani Jaseph from Copper View Elementary SchoolInfo: SEL is critical in special education today because many students can’t fully access
learning until they’re emotionally regulated, and SEL strengthens self-awareness, self-
management, and relationships. It also improves academics and behavior by reducing
barriers that show up as anxiety, aggression, aggression, and suspensions. In this
breakout, I’ll clarify what SEL is and what its core goals are for students with disabilities.
I’ll share key research findings, including a few clear data points/percentages, and
connect them to what teachers see in real classrooms. I’ll model practical, classroom-
ready SEL strategies and routines designed specifically for students with support needs.
I’ll also connect SEL to preparing students for adulthood and real-world skills, not just
test performance. Participants will leave with a simple implementation plan they can use
immediately. They’ll also receive optional handouts or slides to support classroom
rollout.?: 12:30 PM - 01:30 PMTeaching in 2026 and BeyondHost: Angelica Abbey Frye Elementary, CUHSDInfo: In this breakout session, participants will explore what it means to enter the teaching
profession at a time when classrooms and student needs are rapidly evolving.
Grounded in Arizona's State 48 Graduate Profile, this session examines how the 8
Essential Skills and 4 Future Pathways shape what effective teaching looks like today
and in the years ahead.?: 12:30 PM - 01:30 PMWho is School For? Why this Matters for TeachersHost: Tyler Hill University High School, TUHSDInfo: The typical school system communicates values, belonging and success through ways
institutions are structured. Although many of these things are out of our control as
educators, everyday instructional choices have impacts. Participants will explore how
student identity, equity, and multiple pathways show up in classroom language,
expectations, and routines. Narrow definitions of success can marginalize students and
disconnect teachers from the values that brought them to the profession. By connecting
these ideas to concrete classroom practices, the session supports educators in building
inclusive learning environments that affirm students’ identities while sustaining purpose
and humanity in their teaching.?: 12:30 PM - 01:30 PMReflecting Without Spiraling: How to gather and use feedback for self-growthHost: Teresa Anthofer Marana High School, MUSDInfo: Asking for feedback can make a teacher feel awkward and vulnerable, but it’s an
incredible opportunity to strengthen your practice while cultivating trust and respect with
your students and colleagues. This session will explore how to maximize your
professional growth by combining observations, direct feedback, and self-reflection to
enhance your instruction. We’ll learn how to engage students as partners in a mutually
beneficial reflective process, use peer observation as a targeted tool, and highlight
questioning strategies to arrive at the answers we need to implement authentic change.
Participants will leave the session with practical frameworks for developing reflective
habits to support career-long continuous learning and improvement.?: 12:30 PM - 01:30 PM Panel Session: From Classroom to Career: Building a P–20 Talent PipelineHost: Marlo Loria, MPS CTE &amp; Innovative Partnerships DirectorInfo: This panel centers on how strong K–12, higher education, and workforce partnerships create meaningful, career-connected pathways for students. Featuring Marlo Loria, Director of Career and Technical Education and Innovative Partnerships for Mesa Public Schools, and Dawn Giles, who connects Mesa high school students with local businesses and organizations, the discussion will highlight CTE-driven strategies that support workforce readiness and strengthen the educator pipeline.
Panelists will share how internships, job shadows, industry partnerships, and early exposure to education careers are designed and scaled across a P–20 ecosystem. The session will emphasize alignment between schools, colleges, and employers to address workforce needs, inspire future educators, and ensure students graduate with clear, supported pathways into college, careers, and teaching.?: 01:45 PM - 02:45 PMSEL and Special EducationHost: Tiffani Jaseph from Copper View Elementary School, SUSDInfo: SEL is critical in special education today because many students can’t fully access

Grounded in themes from Multiple Choice, panelists will examine the gap between legislative intent and classroom reality, particularly for historically marginalized students. The discussion will address the impact of DEI-related legislation on equity-focused practices and accountability, as well as policies affecting English Language Learners, including the ban on bilingual education. Using a policy-to-practice lens, the session raises critical questions about power, access, and how “choice” is defined and constrained by law.?: 02:50 PM - 03:30 PMClosing Circle &amp; Networking: From Reflection to ActionInfo: Join us for a final Closing Circle &amp; Networking Session focused on connection and action. Participants will self-select into one of three facilitated groups:
Future Educators – Students and aspiring teachers
Current Educators – Teachers, leaders, and education professionals
Community Members – Families, partners, advocates, and stakeholders
Each group will reflect on key themes from the day, share perspectives, build connections, and identify practical next steps to support and advocate for public education. This session is designed to turn conversation into action and leave participants with new relationships and clear ideas for moving the work forward.
