School and district leaders from AACPS represented our community with pride at the IB Global Conference in New Orleans, leading engaging and informative sessions for an international audience of educators.
AACPS teams shared innovative strategies for instructional planning during times of change, offering tools and insights to help educators adapt and lead with purpose. They also highlighted the impact of College and Career Readiness programs, emphasizing how these are being used to promote access, opportunity, and real-world preparedness for every student.
