Conference

NEASC Leadership Conference
November 20-22, 2024

Connecting our learning communities around shared purpose is not just a choice, but a necessity. As educational leaders in a world of diverse cultures, values, and conflict, it is more important than ever to put the well-being of students at the center of everything we do. By encouraging diplomacy and candor in our schools, we can build common ground and shift conversations toward meeting the needs of all students. We know there is a deep connection between student well-being and academic success; as leaders, we must cultivate compassionate learning communities that empower students to navigate the complexities of the world beyond school with empathy and resilience.

Bringing a global community of K-12 school leaders together for three days of deep collaborative learning, the NEASC Leadership Conference promises to deliver a dynamic exchange of insights and ideas on how to bridge divides. From addressing implicit biases to fostering courageous conversations on sensitive topics, attendees will gain practical tools and frameworks to promote empathy and unity.

Keynote speakers, short talks from leaders highlighting innovative practice, concurrent sessions, and networking opportunities including meals and an evening reception will be included.
