Thursday, April 30, 2020  Education Upended: Re-imagining Family-School Connections
Please join us for the ongoing discussion of 'A Better Normal- Education Upended' led by Lara Kain, ACEs Connection's community manager for ACEs in Education. After two very fruitful conversations, we will start our deep dive into selected topics in education.

During our recent conversations a recurring theme continues to surface regarding connections between families and schools during the current crises. Both challenges and successes have been shared and highlighted. This week we will dive into the topic of school and family connections. We invite you to join us and share what is working, what has been challenging, and how we might carry these lessons forward. 

Our current capacity is 100 participants, so please join us on time and we will enter people until we reach capacity. These will be recorded and available on the ACEsConnection website.

When: Apr 30, 2020 12:00 PM Pacific Time (US and Canada)
