And that’s a wrap! We had a fantastic day learning, connecting, and networking. Thank you to everyone who helped make this event a success!

🎁Did someone say free swag? 😄 We have a wide array of vendors at the Leadership and Innovation Showcase who provide services and solutions that include cloud-based applications ☁️, technology equipment 💻📱, cybersecurity protection 🔒🛡️, AI and data-driven solutions 🤖📊 and more! Thank you, vendors, for your support of this event!

🤔It’s hard to decide on a breakout session to attend when there are so many great options! This morning, we explored topics like building supportive networks, what creates student success at the VLA, real-life strategies used by educators to meaningfully integrate AI into the classroom 🤖 🧑‍🏫, and one district’s successful unification of data.

🙌 What an unbelievable keynote session by AWS Education Leader Annmarie Lehner. 🎤 She challenged educators and leaders to be innovation-ready by making space for technology and innovation. To help with this preparation, she shared a powerful, practical framework 🧱 that guides districts in embracing digital transformation while ensuring student safety. 🌐 🔐

If it’s too good to be true, it probably is! Scammers will try every trick in the book to get you on board, so a healthy dose of skepticism is a good thing. #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth #CaringCommunity #Character #CustomerFocused #EdTech

Our bronze sponsors are excited to connect with you and share how they can support your district in bringing the best of technology to the classroom. Thank you, bronze sponsors, for your support.

When you enable MFA, you disable the hackers. Even quick solutions like multi-factor authentication are a strong defense. #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth #CaringCommunity #Character #CustomerFocused #EdTech

Using the same password for everything might be easy to remember, but it’s also easy to hack. Storing multiple passwords in one password manager is stronger and more secure. #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth #CaringCommunity #Character #CustomerFocused #EdTech

Hackers don’t hack in, they log in. Protect your passwords by making them complex and unique to each account. Make some new ones that are 12-16 characters for #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth #CaringCommunity #Character #CustomerFocused #EdTech

We’re proud to celebrate our partnership with the DCMO BOCES CTE program! Through this collaboration, SCRIC managers Jalene and Bruce connect with students as juniors and seniors to share career opportunities, participate in career fairs, host mock interviews, and even take part in signing ceremonies when graduates join our team.

Pictured here are three recent graduates who have just been hired at the SCRIC, alongside two former CTE students who have been with us for years—including one who was recently promoted.

This partnership has created a pipeline of talented, motivated individuals who are making an impact at the SCRIC, and we are grateful for the continued success of this program. #FutureReady #TechCareers #InvestingintheFuture #EdTech #Character #CaringCommunity #Continuouslearning #Collaboration
