A great school year starts with strong leadership! 🌟

Today, school and district leadership teams from across our schools and buildings gathered at Grassfield High School for our annual Empower Conference.

The day included remarks from Superintendent Dr. Jared Cotton and our incoming Superintendent Dr. Doug Brubaker, an inspiring keynote from Dr. Jody Carrington as part of the Chesapeake Speaker Series presented by the Chesapeake Public Schools Educational Foundation, remarks from Antonio Lomba, and collaborative sessions to prepare for the year ahead.

"When people feel seen, they rise." We can't wait to continue the momentum tomorrow.
