​Colleague Circles

Colleague Circles are support communities that meet throughout the convening to share and address common challenges. These central hubs allow participants to quickly build intense professional, social, and emotional bonds. Some teachers report forming relationships in colleague circles that last well after the convening. In fact, many teachers have said colleague circles are the most important and rewarding part of convenings.
