Bestselling Author Workshops: Preparing Children For Success

January 6, 2015

The Escambia County School District is sponsoring three identical parental involvement workshops this month with  world-renowned educational consultant.

The workshops, “Preparing Children for Success in School and Life,” will be led Marcia L. Tate, the former executive director of Professional Development for the DeKalb County School System in Georgia. During her 30-year career with the district, she was a classroom teacher, reading specialist, language arts coordinator, and a staff development executive director.

As an educational consultant, she has taught more than 350,000 administrators, teachers, parents, and business and community leaders throughout the world, and she is the author of five bestsellers.  Participants in her workshops refer to them as “some of the best ones they have ever experienced” since Tate  uses the 20 brain-compatible strategies outlined in her books to actively engage her audiences.

The workshops will be held:

  • Tuesday, January 13 — 5:30 p.m to 7:30 p.m., Ernest Ward Middle School Gym, 7650 North Highway 97, Walnut Hill.
  • Wednesday, January 14 — 9 a.m. to 11 a.m., Woodland Heights Community Center, 111 Berkley Drive, Pensacola.
  • Wednesday, January 14 — Noon to 2 p.m., West Florida Main Public Library, 239 North Spring Street, Pensacola.

The public is invited and parents are encouraged to attend any of the three sessions. For more information, call The School District of Escambia County Title I Office at (850) 595-6915, ext. 235.
