Edcamp Northwoods Presented by WPT Education

Dear educators,

At Wisconsin Public Television, we believe teachers are the heart of the learning ecosystem and deserve focused allies who can help them enhance their craft.

Join us for Edcamp Northwoods presented by Wisconsin Public Television Education on April 21 at Tomahawk Middle School! We are partnering with Edcamp Northwoods to support the rich teaching community in northern Wisconsin by providing a time for educators to hold conversations and broaden their personal learning networks.

What’s an edcamp? It is a participant-driven event with sessions that are developed and facilitated by the teachers who are attending. As always, they are free to attend! We look forward to meeting you at Edcamp Northwoods presented by Wisconsin Public Television Education!

Yours in education,

Kristin Leglar
Senior Education Specialist, WPT Education
