• MPDE Annual Summer Retreat
Wednesday, July 17, 2019
Lasell College
1844 Commonwealth Ave. 
Newton, MA 02466 

The Representatives of MPDE Members districts came together in a Planning Retreat on July 17th to review and assess the results of the 2018-2019 Operations Plan and to develop the plan for 2019-2010. This was an annual event that MPDE has conducted over the years and one that provides the opportunity for the HR Directors and Administrators who represent the district members of MPDE to reflect on the Mission of the Organization to increase the representation of educators of color in MPDE districts.

Through the courtesy of Dr. Claudia Rinaldi, Associate Professor/Chair at Lasell College, MPDE was invited to conduct this year’s Retreat on Lasell’s campus. We are very grateful to Dr. Rinaldi, who participated in the MPDE Building Bridges Conference this past February and presented information on the program she conducts at Lasell, “Pathways to Increasing Teacher Diversity,” for the opportunity to enjoy Lasell’s campus for the 2019 MPDE Retreat venue.

Diversity Job Fair 2021

MPDE held its annual job fair virtually on March 31, 2021. Our districts were able to set up online booths to provide attendees with information about their schools, cities, and job openings. Candidates were able to connect with district representatives via a chatroom feature that allowed for audio/video calls. They were also able to explore an auditorium that included presentations about the job search process. Although we would have loved to foster these connections in-person, we were happy to provide a safe, positive, and productive event online!
