Dennis Shirley, Florencia and Marc Gabelli Family Faculty Fellow; and Professor of Formative Education, Lynch School of Education and Human Development, Boston College, speaks at the City Club.
Dennis Shirley believes a perfect storm is upon us and educators are in the middle of it–that identity issues often incite and divide us, but they are actually our way out of the storm. Shirley is a scholar of educational change who helps schools around the world to improve teaching and learning. His research focuses on the frequency of conflict between the ideals of educators and the realities of power and politics.
In his third book, co-authored with Andy Hargreaves, The Age of Identity: Who Do Our Kids Think They Are… and How Do We Help Them Belong? is a compelling call to action for educators and families alike.
Join us at the City Club as we hear from Dennis Shirley on how schools must engage with young people’s identities in their fullness and complexity.

The City Club of Cleveland

Our new address is 1317 Euclid Ave., Suite 100. We are located on the north side of Euclid Ave., between E. 13th and E 14th Streets, which means the RTA’s free E-Line and C-line trolleys, and the Healthline all stop in front of our building.
If you are driving, park in the Playhouse Square Parking Garage, located at 1450 Chester Ave. You can view a map of the garage here. If you are at the City Club between 10:30 am and 3 pm, bring your ticket with you into the City Club and we will provide validation to reduce your cost to $3.00. Special rates do apply outside those hours.
After parking in the garage, you can walk to the City Club’s entrance on Euclid Ave. via the covered walkway. The walkway is accessible from the 2nd floor of the garage – keep walking through it until you reach Euclid Avenue, then turn right and our entrance is located just beneath the blue gong logo!
Valet parking is available at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, located at 1260 Euclid Ave. Mention the City Club when you pull up to valet, and your rate will be reduced to $20.
