VOTE NOW: Green Dot Submits Three Panels for 2018 SXSWedu Conference & Festival
For its third year in a row, Green Dot Public Schools submitted proposals for our educators, leadership team and staff to lead panel discussions at SXSWedu’s annual conference in Austin, TX. Once a year, educators from around the country come together to connect, share best practices and learn how to best serve students. Earlier this year, Green Dot led two panels at SXSWedu. Teachers were lined up out the door to learn about Green Dot’s comprehensive approach to professional development, and Green Dot CEO Marco Petruzzi partnered with Scott Sargrad from the Center for American Progress to discuss ESSA implementation. Green Dot’s presence at SXSWedu 2017 was a smash hit — and we’re expecting next year won’t be any different.
