Webinar Date: May 24, 2022

Featuring a panel of Opportunity Culture leaders, this webinar gives an overview of the Opportunity Culture initiative and highlights how Opportunity Culture models help strengthen teacher pipelines and address teacher shortages in Texas, which has led the way in establishing paid, yearlong Opportunity Culture teacher residencies. Dr. Sharon Shields, superintendent of La Vega Independent School District (ISD), Marlene Garcia Sauceda, Opportunity Culture director in Klein ISD, and Anne Erickson, chief people and innovation officer for Uplift Education, discuss why their sites joined the initiative and how Opportunity Culture educator roles are transforming teacher experiences and student learning, and answer participants’ questions about specifics of Opportunity Culture implementation.
