We are pleased to welcome you to the 2023 Hybrid Title III Symposium. There is much to
celebrate as we join together in the lovely river city of San Antonio, Texas, and share relevant,
research-based strategies to ensure that emergent bilingual students experience an increase in
academic achievement
and positive school outcomes. The theme guiding this year's Symposium
is: Building the Blueprint - Constructing Success for Emergent Bilingual Students.
This year's event will take place in the Henry B. González Convention Center and will include a
Networking Social on Sunday, July 16 from 5 to 7 pm, to build connections and share ideas. We invite you
to enjoy appetizers and drinks while previewing poster sessions highlighting best practices utilized by
talented educators across the state. During the Symposium you will choose from a variety of breakout
sessions presented by Texas colleagues.
These sessions will provide valuable information that links content
and instructional strategies in innovative ways to support emergent bilingual student success. The
intentional selection of sessions and leveraging these networking opportunities will allow you to connect
and share examples of the tremendous things happening in your schools, and classrooms.
We are excited to see you this summer. Take a moment to review the site and register today!
Sincerely,
Dr. Julie Lara, Director
Emergent Bilingual Support Division
Office of Special Populations and Monitoring
Texas Education Agency
