Join us, alongside fellow innovative district leaders, for an exclusive lunch at NashHouse, just a few minutes away from the conference center. We’ll kick things off with a brief introduction to Balanced Assessment by Formative, followed by a dedicated focus group session to gather your insights. We want to hear your perspective on how we can better support your day-to-day work and help shape our future tools. Spaces are limited, so please register today to save your spot!
