Future-Ready Learners: Skills for Lifelong Success

Thank you!

Thank you to our speakers and participants for helping create such a welcoming and dynamic learning community at this year's Showcase!

A few thoughts from our 2025 attendees:

The highlight for me was hearing what other schools are working on, and hearing from educators about what they are passionate about and proud of.
The timing, location, and variety of presentations all worked to support our growth as a district and educators.
Seeing high quality and rigorous student work was a highlight.
The variety of presentations, options for sessions, panel discussion, and flow of the event were great. It offered the ability to shift mindsets when moving between spaces, while also maximizing the impact of the event.

Open schedule

Learn with and from your peers

Engage with and learn from educators at other NEASC-Accredited schools who will share best practices and actionable examples of how they are:

creating opportunities for learner agency and autonomy
encouraging intellectual curiosity and self-directed learning
developing global citizenship
connecting learning to social impact
cultivating empathy, inclusion, and belonging
supporting learner well-being and mental health awareness in a changing world
fostering purpose-driven learning and real-world learning experiences
and more...

The importance of purpose-driven learning is an integral component of the NEASC Standards for Accreditation and the 2025 Showcase continues this theme. Participants will learn how to further align their own schools with the Standards and implement new strategies for growth while exploring real-world examples of best practices from their peers.

Who should attend?

This event is open to educators, students, counselors, administrators, and other personnel in K-12 schools. Team participation by groups from schools/districts is highly encouraged.

Please note that this event has been designed for educators in public and independent schools/districts in the US; however, we welcome participants from other NEASC-Accredited schools who wish to learn with us.
