Keystone Central presents at meeting of educational leaders
WASHINGTON, DC – The AASA Learning 2025 National Summit, co-hosted with the Successful Practices Network (SPN), brought together over 1,000 educational leaders to highlight their work building future-focused capacity in alignment to the Learning 2025 Commission. Learning 2025 calls for a holistic redesign of the public school system by the year 2025. The Keystone Central School District was invited to showcase their work as a future focused school system. On June 29, Dr. Jacquelyn Martin, along with several members of the administrative team, provided a summary of the district’s leadership journey that began early in 2019.
