[GET THE LETTER](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1lqXdWbIFH6XWCpm3vke4ULVUKYBirhgS2fpDDi02-0M/edit?tab=t.0) ## What Attendees are Saying "I got so much, a wealth of knowledge, from being able to network with others that are using Q, from those that are behind the scenes building Q, even from my own team and my own school district. I feel like I got such a benefit today and was really able to understand the workings of how I can enhance my work with students at my school district."   **Jose Barzaga** Fontana Unified School District "Every time I come \[to the Q User Summit\], there's always something new that I can take away with me. Whether there's new features, or meeting new people, or even meeting new people who have the same role as me using Q, or even different roles, it's always eye-opening and it helps me to have a thoughtful process of taking that information back to help my LEA."   **Hannie Low** Oak Park Unified School District "The great thing about the Q User Summit is the ability to network with other districts. We're a California district, so we're able to network and ask questions of other California districts as to what are you guys doing? We're not trying to recreate the wheel, we rely on one another here in California to gether information and answers for solutions that we're all looking for." **Kris Kohlmeier** Glendale Unified School District "This conference has helped me network with others, whether it's just a quick meeting with other people and learning what their role with Q is, hearing their stories, as well as whether they have any tips. I have my ear open out there and it's helped a lot with networking. I've also loved all the sessions, and the most valuable has been Quick Reports."   **Ambar Mendoza** Manteca Unified School District "The most valuable session was about behavior. I was typing \[the letters\] up myself and I didn't know that it was in MISTAR-Q until I found out from another person at the conference. We learned a lot from each other. I learned a lot from that session and how to make reports."   **Rendell Wooden** Romulus School District "You're in a space where people are doing either similar jobs and you're able to hear, especially during the sessions, things that they're doing, things that they're struggling with, how they use different modules. So I think it's a great way to connect with them and learn how you can do things better, and how you can help them as well."   **Christoper O'Brien** Farmington SchooDistrict ## Frequently Asked Questions If you have a question that isn't covered below, reach out to Shannon at sraines@myaequitas.com.   ###### When and where is the 2027 Q User Summit?
