You're in the driver's seat when it comes to educator professional development! An Edcamp is designed to provide participant-driven professional development for PreK-12 educators. Generally referred to as an "unconference," Edcamps are built on connected and participatory learning principles.

Waukegan Public Schools is sponsoring this unique opportunity, and it is open to all area educators. It has been established to create opportunities across schools, subject areas, grade levels, and school systems for administrators, teachers, and paraprofessionals to connect and collaborate about classroom teaching and learning. Those who attend Edcamp Waukegan will attend sessions on innovative classroom practices, learn what others are doing, gain support for education with best practices in the classroom, and actively participate in up to four sessions related to teaching and learning.
