Michigan districts are facing real pressures: shrinking margins, rising demands, and tighter oversight over categorical funds. In this session, our presenters will share how they’re connecting people and data to face these challenges head-on.
You’ll walk away with actionable ideas you can implement immediately, plus the chance to collaborate with district peers tackling the same challenges.
