Bilingual/ESL Virtual Symposium
June 23-24, 2020
We went virtual!
Our Bilingual and ESL Annual Summer Symposium was held online on June 23 and 24th. We hope you enjoyed bite-sized chunks of learning and a flexible schedule designed to honor your time and your need to stand up and stretch!
Thanks to all who participated and learned alongside us. We were able to reach nearly 800 educators from North Texas and had presenters joining us from all over Texas and even North Carolina!
As a reminder, the attendance procedure is detailed below:
