“Collaborative Partnerships Improve Student Achievement”

What: The ABC Federation of Teachers and The ABC Unified School District Partnership invites you to send a Union/District team to attend this year’s Institute. The theme for this year’s Institute is “Collaborative Partnerships Improve Student Achievement: The Common Core as a Collaborative Project”. Many Administrators and Union leaders throughout the country have been asking the question of how they can improve labor-management relations. This Institute will bring together experts, practitioners and researchers in the field of data and partnership building to give Districts the tools needed to promote a collaborative labor-management partnership. Participants will receive both Saul Rubinstein’s report entitled “Teachers Unions and Management Partnerships: How working Together Improves Student Achievement” and “ABC’s of Partnership” handbook that will help districts and local unions understand some of the elements needed to promote a collaborative environment.

When: Wednesday, October 22, 2014 and Thursday, October 23, 2014
The visiting teams will be involved in the Labor Management Institute on Wednesday, October 22rd and on Thursday, October 23rd your team will participate in the 15th Annual ABC PAL RETREAT where your team will attend short seminars on: Common Core, PBIS, Fierce Conversations, Technology and the Common Core. Teams will see first-hand a successful working partnership where educational colleagues work together so that students can learn and be successful. Teams will observe and participate in Partnership building activities and hear models of partnering at the school level.

Where: Holiday Inn, 7000 Beach Blvd., Buena Park, California 90620
