You are cordially invited to attend LILAC’s final professional development and networking event of the 2022-23 school year. Please join us and fellow colleagues from 12:00 – 3:00 p.m. on Friday, May 17, 2024, at Captain Bill’s Restaurant, located at 122 Ocean Avenue, Bay Shore, NY 11706. For additional directions, please call Captain Bill’s directly at (631) 665-6262. A three-course lunch will be served. During this professional development and networking event, we will be honoring the local New York State English Council Educators of Excellence and our Kenneth Gambone Writing Contest winners.
Our featured presenter is Lauren Kolbeck, a passionate educator with over 25 years experience as a pre-k - grade 3 classroom teacher, reading teacher, coach and staff developer. Lauren has worked in rural, urban, and suburban schools across the U.S. and has supported schools in Sweden, Hong Kong, and Singapore. For over a decade she worked as a lead staff developer at Teachers College and co-authored two books with Lucy Calkins. Currently, she provides literacy support and training to schools across Long Island.
We hope you will join us to celebrate our talented student writers and local NYSEC award recipients, to be inspired by Ms. Kolbeck’s presentation, and to exchange instructional ideas with colleagues from across Long Island. Pricing for this event will be $45.00 for LILAC members and $50.00 for non-members. Please complete this registration form and mail your check or pay with cash or check at the door.
