Speaker Series – The Future of Learning, Part 2: Education, Career and Life

Save the date: Our next Flight Plan 2035 Speaker Series event is on Monday, Jan. 13!

We loved seeing so many students, staff, families and community members join us for our virtual Flight Plan 2035 Speaker Series session! In case you missed it, you can watch the full recording on our YouTube channel.

We’ve had three great Speaker Series events so far, and we invite you to join us for another Speaker Series! This Speaker Series is made possible by the Foundation for Eden Prairie Schools (FEPS) and is part of their $100,000 grant to support emerging technologies in our schools.

What: The Future of Learning, Part 2: Education, Career and Life

Presentation by renowned education thought leader Dr. Bill Daggett 

When: Monday, Jan. 13, 6-7:30 p.m.

Where: Central Middle School Performing Arts Center, 8025 School Rd, Eden Prairie, MN

Virtual option via Zoom (link coming soon!)

Who: Families, staff, students, and community members

RSVP for the Speaker Series session

Food, childcare, and Spanish and Somali interpretation will be provided for those attending in person. Somali and Spanish interpretation will also be offered online.

Dr. Bill Daggett – an author, advisor and leading speaker on progressing education systems to meet the needs of each student – will lead us in a conversation about the experiences, knowledge, skills and values our students will need in the future. Over the course of his career, Dr. Daggett has led both national and international efforts to effectively prepare students for the educational experiences of tomorrow. 

An avid supporter of public education, he challenges all of us to be more focused on our children’s future than on maintaining the schools of our youth. He has provided his insights and leadership guidance to nearly every major education association in the country, hundreds of school districts, numerous political and business leaders, publishers, and more.

If you are unable to join this conversation, you can share ideas online through our Eagle Voice platform, a crowdsourcing tool for students, staff, families and community members. As part of this tool, you are able to submit your own ideas and “upvote” the ideas of others. You can share as many ideas as you would like, and ideas shared through Eagle Voice will be incorporated as we create Flight Plan 2035.

We’ll see you on January 13 for another great community conversation!
