Should Instructional Coaches Attend FETC?
Should Instructional Coaches attend FETC? YES! This past year, there were dozens of outstanding sessions that supported instructional coaching, professional development, and how to support teachers innovating in their classrooms.
After the conference this year, I had the opportunity to sit down with Gabriel Carrillo and Susan Vincentz to discuss their thoughts about the conference and how attending events such as FETC can benefit their school districts.
