ASTE's Leadership Summit focuses on school readiness for 1:1 program vision, leadership and critical components. School leadership teams (2-3 people) are encouraged to attend this hands on, working session for the technology initiative that is proposed in the Governor's budget recommendations.

You will get new ideas, great resources, guided exploration and time to work in your District and cross District teams to bring about a quality leadership training experience during the Summit.
