One week from today, the School District of Indian River County will be represented on the national stage.

On October 14, Superintendent Dr. David K. Moore will take the stage at the Begin Early Learning Summit at EdTech Week at Teachers College, Columbia University in New York City. The summit brings together more than 100 senior leaders across research, education, policy, philanthropy, and edtech.

During his featured 9:40 a.m. Spotlight, “Building Systems That Change Outcomes,” Dr. Moore will share how Indian River County transformed reading outcomes by connecting school systems, educators, nonprofits, and families around a common vision and shared accountability, moving from isolated interventions toward sustainable, community-wide impact.

We are proud to see the work happening right here in Indian River County contributing to a national conversation about stronger systems for children, families, and communities.

Sharing systems. Changing outcomes. Advancing literacy.

A special weather lesson came to Citrus Elementary School as WPBF 25 meteorologist Nikki Sheaks visited Miss Williams’ class to give students an inside look at weather, forecasting, and the science behind South Florida’s changing conditions.

Students had the opportunity to learn directly from a local meteorologist, ask questions, and connect classroom learning to a real-world career.

Thank you, Nikki Sheaks and WPBF 25, for taking the time to share your knowledge with our students and for helping make learning meaningful beyond the classroom. We are grateful for community partners who continue to invest in our students and schools.
