LAUSD Beyond the Bell Workshop Strand
    

LAUSD's Beyond the Bell is presenting a Workshop Strand throughout the 2020 BOOST Conference. LAUSD recognizes that kids need opportunities to design, build, create, practice, learn and thrive! Beyond the Bell is leading the charge for innovative Out of School Time programs through creative approaches to program design, collaboration, and training.

Beyond the Bell workshops are co-facilitated by top LAUSD staff working directly in the field. They are the practitioners that are on the ground developing, implementing and refining programs in real-time. Each of these practitioners are members of LAUSD's Core 30, an innovative unique professional development and learning community designed to expand, examine and explore best practices in education and OST programs to be directly implemented directly at LAUSD program sites.
