It is our pleasure to welcome you to the 2020 ONE Community Conference. This unique

community event began 6 years ago with less than 100 participants. Last year, we welcomed over 475 district students, staff members, families, and community members as well aspartners and friends from across central Ohio and beyond.

This year’s theme, Inspiring a Community of Changemakers , encourages us to situate

ourselves in a place of action. Together, we will reflect on our sphere of influence and identify opportunities to make change in our own lives, relationships, workplaces, and communities. As you will see from our student presenters, you are never too young to start making a difference in this world.

As a conference attendee, you will have the opportunity to listen to outstanding keynote

speakers, interact with student participants, and engage with session presenters on issues

impacting our community and young people. Also, in the spirit of ONE Community, you will be presented with many rich moments to learn alongside and build relationships with fellow

attendees. Through the exchange of differing perspectives and experiences, we can truly

build ONE community.

Thank you for joining us. We wish you the best experience.
