We will participate in a live National League of Cities Web seminar, “Building Public Will: Promoting Citizen Engagement to Improve Your City’s Schools.” City leaders from Denver and Nashville will appear on the Web seminar to discuss their strategies for improving public schools. The deputy director of the Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, which conducted a study of these and three other cities’ efforts to improve schools, also will speak. A follow-up discussion will be held at Vision for Children at Risk on how those cities’ lessons can be applied here.
