Last week, a group of Eden Prairie students joined The Student Conference, an event to bring student voice to the forefront around the future of education. The conference, which was created for students and led by students, addressed a number of topics including changing demographics, personalized education and how schools can address rapid changes in our economy and society. Students from school districts across the metro were invited to participate. A handful of Eden Prairie students were trained to facilitate conference sessions. Area superintendents and education leaders, including Eden Prairie’s Dr. Josh Swanson, were in attendance.
