High Schools That Work

High Schools That Work

2003 Annual Staff Development Conference Videos

Each summer High Schools That Work produces videotapes of selected keynote addresses and conference sessions on school improvement at the HSTW Annual Staff Development Conference. The purpose is to capture new information that high school and middle grades leaders and teachers can use in local professional development activities throughout the year. Following is a list of the videos — some are also available in CD format — from the 2003 conference. Presentations are usually 50 to 90 minutes in length. To order you can call our publications department at (404) 875-9211 ext. 236, email at publications@sreb.org.
