Purpose: The 2015 P-K-1st Stronger Together Conference offers Preschool, Kindergarten, and 1st Grade
teachers, support staff and administrators an opportunity to gather as a professional team, learn from each
other and celebrate our collective work. This conference will give participants the opportunity to gather
additional ideas, strategies and tools to utilize in helping students ages three to eight grow and learn. We will
have separate tracks for teachers, administrators and support staff, and are therefore seeking workshops with
deep content and a practice-rich focus. Please consider submitting a workshop proposal.
