“This was AMAZING from start to finish. Your speakers were stellar and experts in the field. … So much good information to help me plan PD for my teachers and help them intentionally plan to support our kiddos in Fundations!”

Kara Canning, Missouri

“This conference was by far one of the greatest I have attended! Rich in content, rich in expanding my knowledge, rich in speaker impact. I am motivated to start the year with a different perspective while using Fundations!”

Nancy Richardson, Arizona

“[The Fundations Conference] was absolutely top-notch! If I didn’t know this was your first virtual conference, I would have thought you had been implementing them in this format for years! The speakers were spot on with evidence-based practices and practical implications that honored our current teaching environment.”
