October 1-2, 2019 at Hilton Polaris Celebrating 50 Years of Leadership BASA’s 50th Annual Fall Conference

Featuring Key Note Speakers

October 1st: John Tanner True Accountability: What it Can and Should Look Like John Tanner is an educational thinker and writ- er specializing in the structures that drive the educational enterprise. In his book, The Pit- falls of Reform , John outlines how a number of those present structures—most notably tests, standards, and the quality determination for schools—all possess the similar characteristic of having been designed for purposes outside the goal of educational excellence. As a result, educational excellence occurs not because of the formal systems of accountability, but in spite of them, and when it does an educator is at heart of the change.

October 2nd: Panel of Experts Cybercrime Comes to Schools: Lessons Learned from a Victim District

What would it take to restore public trust if your school gets scammed for a lot of money? Imagine trying to pass a levy on the heels of a cyber theft of public funds…what can you do to protect your district’s resources? Cyber criminals have attacked schools in Ohio. Listen to and speak with a panel of those who have lived it. Learn from a moderated panel that includes two Ohio superintendents whose districts have been victims of cy- ber thievery tell their stories, an FBI supervisor who lays out common and uncommon strategies employed by cyber crimi- nals, along with what you can do to best protect your district resources, a banker who will advise you on best practices and bank strategies, an ITC Director will share data handling and techniques, and the statewide perspective of the Management Council.

Horace Mann is a BASA corporate partner and a national sponsor of DonorsChoose.org, an organization that connects teachers in need of classroom resources with donors who want to help.
