NJPSA/FEA Leadership Roundtables

As schools are planning for the opening of the 2020-21 school year, our school leaders have a lot of questions and many issues they will have to deal with in preparing for September, whether that means opening school buildings, continuing with distance learning, or a blended approach.

About the Leadership Roundtables

NJPSA/FEA plans to hold weekly Leadership Roundtable Zoom sessions to provide opportunities for leaders to discuss key issues and share best practices with each other. Topics will change each week. Be sure to check for emails and frequently visit this page for announcements and updates regarding future roundtable discussions!

After you register, you will be sent a Zoom invitation, which you must complete in order to access the meeting.
