Creating a Culture of Learning in Communities
NMF is holding a regional summit on May 17, 2012 at the University of Minnesota, Crookston.
The agenda for the summit is framed by the future of education and how to prepare for it, and on national best practices in the school/community partnership’s role for enhancing education, student achievement and development. It will highlight examples of regional best practices for creating a culture of learning in communities. To conclude, participants will join a café- style dialogue around the topic.
