Join the Leadership Foundation and our partners Opportunity 180 and the Vegas Chamber for a symposium on K-12 education. Community, education, and business leaders will come together to learn about strategies that are making significant improvements in K-12 education in school districts across the country.
Hear from national education experts on what other cities and states have done to improve education from a student-first approach. Learn about education policies that have created positive results in the classroom, how philanthropy is engaging in K-12, and what strategies we can adopt that will drive better outcomes for our students.
