Bryn Mawr to Host Educating Girls Symposium on Oct. 18

The Bryn Mawr School will host the the National Coalition of Girls' Schools Educating Girls Symposium on October 18, 2019, bringing together educators for an exchange of best practices for teaching and working with girls.
 
The theme for this year's event is "Leading Schools, Leading Girls: Preparing for the Future." Educators from the region and across the country to address the following essential questions:
  • What are the competencies today’s world demands from leaders?
  • How are schools responding to these demands in terms of programming/experiences for girls?
  • In what ways are schools deliberately cultivating leadership skills such as confidence and endurance among girls and women?
  • In an era of sustainability and strategic advancement, how do schools determine what programs and initiatives are most relevant and critical to their mission?
  • How can schools provide opportunities for adults in their communities to grow professionally and model leadership for their students?
Participants will explore these questions and more in peer-led breakout sessions and hear from keynote speakers, including Marin Alsop, Music Director of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra; Dr. Sally A. Nuamah, author of How Girls Achieve; and Dr. Stephanie Akoumany; Founder and CEO of Bloom.
