It has been said "inspiration is for amateurs." Innovative practice must be less of a spontaneous event and more of a practiced process. This interactive session will focus on protocols and practices that avoid group think, the creative paradox, and stagnation, all of which are symptomatic of a wall of chairs facing the board of education dais. Learn practices the Howell Township Board of Education has used that have led to our Boardsmanship Professional Learning Committee, and an invigorated learning community.
