Logistics:
The day will begin at 8:00, with the keynote presentation, starting promptly at 8:15 in the Nipmuc HS Auditorium.
Once sessions are approaching capacity, registration maybe closed if we can’t find a larger venue.
Some rooms may be changed between now and the day of the event.
Some details of sessions may be adapted as well.
We still welcome session proposals by emailing Maureen Cohen at mcohen@mursd.org

Important Note:
Please read the session information carefully. Some of the sessions are open to all participants, and others are closed sessions for only MURSD participants.
This session will be a facilitated discussion of the upcoming testing and the shifts in question formats and writing expectations based on what we currently know. Participants should bring some PARCC item examples and ideas for helping to prepare our students for new assessments in ELA. This is an Edcamp style facilitated discussion.
