The Portrait of a Graduate can catalyze transformative change—or become little more than a poster on the wall. The difference lies in the depth and intentionality of implementation. In this presentation, based on her recent study, Dr. McEwen will explore a continuum of implementation approaches—from symbolic to systemic—and share strategies for turning your district’s Portrait into a living, breathing guide for teaching, learning, and leadership. Whether you're just beginning your Portrait of a Graduate journey or looking to reinvigorate an existing effort, you’ll leave with concrete ideas, actionable insights, and renewed energy for this important work.
