A VISION FOR TEACHER EXCELLENCE WEBINAR
We understood that the events of 2020 were likely to make Utah’s teacher shortage even worse and have heightened the need for world-class teachers in every classroom.
That’s why in October of 2020, we hosted a webinar to hear from our staff and two members of the group that generated the Vision for Teacher Excellence: Derek Miller, President & CEO of the Salt Lake Chamber, and Dr. Sydnee Dickson, State Superintendent of Public Instructions.
