Co-Chairs of the Student Support Committee of the Educational Collaborative for International Schools, Chris Perakis and Dr. Peggy Pelonis co-organized this year's Student Support Conference in Luxembourg.

The conference included exceptional presenters and keynote speakers such as  Anna Sugarman, Professional Development Coordinator, New York, Lisa Westman, author of "Student-Driven Differentiation, 8 Steps to Harmonize Learning in  the Classroom", and Paul Rasmussen, author of 'The Quest to Feel Good".

Staying true to ACS Athens philosophy of student-centered learning, such Professional Development Activities benefit all those working in international schools.

Due to popular demand, what was intended to be a bi-annual conference has become an annual conference and reached capacity in numbers with many on a waiting list. This phenomenon speaks both of the quality of the conference content as well as the worldwide needs in education.
