ICE 8 Forum: School Counselors/Social Workers
While the content of each forum is driven by the participants, all forums will have a similar structure:
- Active Participation in areas of expertise, from the participants and the Coordinated School Health Team
- Updates from NYSED (as appropriate)
- District Roundtable – to share questions, successes, and resources from participating districts
- Design/Network Time – professional time set aside purposefully to collaborate across districts
- Share information with district colleagues and administrators
- Community Partner presentations
While the Coordinated School Health Team will serve as facilitators for each forum, these forums are designed for participant interaction and sharing, as well as for reporting back to the larger district. Resources will be shared in person, via listservs, and electronically to facilitate this communication.
Please note, there is no additional cost for participants from ICE 8 districts. If you are not an ICE 8 District, the cost is $160 for the full day experiences and the cost is $80 for the ½ day or less experiences. For example, School Nurse Forums are $80, School Wellness Coordinator Forums are $160, and so on. It is expected that participants will be able to stay for the entire session and we encourage you to have the same person attend all meetings as forum topics tend to build throughout the school year. Additionally, we respectfully request that you limit participants to two from each district for the School Nurses and PE/Health Forums. Once we have final numbers, we’ll open up additional slots should they become available.
