Delegate Testimonials

Kendall Still
Instructional Leadership Director, Oklahoma City Public Schools (OK)

As a first time attendee at RTM I had limited expectations or understanding of the structure for the learning. I walked away excited to bring back solutions and vendor contacts that meet the specific needs of our district. The one on one time and networking opportunities set RTM apart from other events that I have attended. I will definitely be participating in future Events with RTM.

Wendi Pendergrass
Chief Academic Officer of Schools and Programs, Special School District of St. Louis County (MO)

One of the best conferences I’ve been to. The connections you make with other educational colleagues, and able to discuss openly with vendors what your district needs is an amazing experience.

Jason Galloway
Executive Director of Academics, Oklahoma City Public Schools (OK)

This is a one of a kind professional learning event for central office leaders. I love the differentiated opportunities to connect with solution providers, connect with district leaders around the country, network, and share. The personalized agendas create a level of engagement unlike most conference-style events.

Roger Dereszynski
Director of Assessment, Billings Public Schools (MT)

I love getting to connect with district level administrators from across the country that are dealing with the same issues we are. It’s a great combination of networking with other professionals across the country, while keeping up to date with the latest solution providers that can help us all do our jobs more effectively.
