Register now to avoid disappointment.
It’s now just over a year since COVID-19 dramatically changed our lives and thrust unprecedented change upon our education system. Join session host Phil Weinberg — former Deputy Chancellor for Teaching and Learning at the New York City Department of Education Deputy (NYC DOE) — as he asks a panel of six NYC principals how they’ve harnessed technology to both survive and lead the transformation.
How have they kept their schools operating virtually? Empowered staff to complete recurring tasks remotely? Enabled parents to remain engaged in school life? Safeguarded equity and access to learning for all students? Safely managed periods of face-to-face learning? And, supported the wellbeing of staff, students and parents alike through continuous feedback and communication?
Join this virtual discussion panel — brought to you by Operoo — as we share lessons learned, success stories, and discuss opportunities uncovered through necessity and the sector’s pandemic response.

About the Panel Discussion
Why attend?
Listen-in as fellow education leaders pinpoint the technology-driven strategies, tactics, approaches and processes empowering them to operate in a COVID-19 world.
Areas covered include:
1. Virtual school operations:
Staff processes and workflows
Operating schools during COVID-19 has forced the education sector to adapt fast. With little physical interaction, the need to implement scalable, repeatable, online-only processes and workflows is stark. How did you empower staff to complete recurring tasks remotely and keep your school operating virtually? From distributing learning packets to parents and students, collecting consent for new policies, and deploying digital staff approval workflows; to tracking student engagement and responding to requests for information.
2. Parent / family engagement:
Staying connected in school life
Strong parent participation and community engagement are key drivers of student success. What communication methods and channels have proven effective for keeping school communities abreast of changing circumstances, parents engaged in the learning process, and feeling heard? And, how do you integrate (sometimes difficult) feedback into your decision-making process?
3. Mitigating health risks
What processes and practices are being used to monitor, mitigate and report COVID-19 transmission throughout your school community? How are you systemizing your approach to health management to simultaneously ensure reliability and that resources remain focused on learning outcomes?
4. Managing equity and access
for all students
How are you managing the ongoing availability of flexible learning arrangements? How can you ensure equity and access for different cohorts of students, while effectively delivering instruction in a way that maintains learning outcomes for all? What are the systems, approaches and solutions you’ve found to support remote education and to evaluate the effectiveness of digital learning?
5. Moving forward:
Game-changers and challenges
Crisis creates opportunity. If you had to cite your biggest pandemic silver lining, what would it be? What’s the positive change you’ve implemented or stumbled upon, in regards to the way you run your school, which you’ll keep long after the pandemic has gone? And, what’s the biggest challenge NYC schools face when it comes to moving on from COVID-19?
