Instructional Forums
The IES forums provide district leaders and teachers an opportunity to collaborate and stay current on state updates, instructional trends, and curriculum development. Each forum includes NYSED updates, a district roundtable, and time for shared problem-solving and planning.
Participants are expected to share resources and information from each session with their district teams.
2025–2026 Forum Schedule
All meetings are held at the E2CCB LoGuidice Education Center unless otherwise communicated.
