ÌìÌì³Ô¹Ï The ÌìÌì³Ô¹Ï Education Excellence Partnership (KEEP)

Since its inception in 2010, The ÌìÌì³Ô¹Ï Education Excellence Partnership, or KEEP, endeavors to provide a forum for teachers to grow professionally. This commitment is enacted in several ways: supporting teaching excellence by facilitating critical conversations, inquiry into, and reflection upon practice; supporting teacher leadership by providing ongoing professional development to teacher leaders who then share lessons and resources with other educators; and supporting P-16 collaboration by convening school staff within multiple districts, including university faculty in support of teaching excellence and leadership. KEEP Academy accomplishes this goal by co-planning an annual conference administrated by the Office of Professional Development and Outreach in ÌìÌì³Ô¹Ï State’s College of Education, Health, and Human Service and hosted by one of our member school districts.
