The Progressive Education Summit on January 27th
Registration is now open for the 7th Annual Progressive Education Summit on Saturday, January 27th. The Summit is our annual conference with over 40 workshops, 3 master classes, a delicious lunch, and this year a resource fair and ignite talks.
Why come to the Summit? There are so many reasons! Just to get us started, here are the top three reasons to come to the Summit this year:
#1 Because you are an educator who wants to keep learning. You see children as powerful, capable, and worthy of the deepest respect, and you are determined to continually hone your skills, build your network and create for yourself an environment of learning, growth and well being.
#2. Because you love to hear from inspirational people. Keynote Ron Ritchhart is an important thought leader and you enjoy hearing from people in the field. You will come away with new ideas, new practices, new connections. You want to be around folks who know how to put theory into practice and believe things like this:
“A culture of thinking produces the feelings, energy, and even joy that can propel learning forward and motivate us to do what at times can be hard and challenging mental work.”
― Ron Ritchhart, Creating Cultures of Thinking: The 8 Forces We Must Master to Truly Transform Our Schools
#3. You know that in the midst of the winter days it will be wonderful to gather at the Summit. You will be at City Neighbors with hundreds of educators, non profits, parents, students, and more...and feel the warmth of being with so many people who care passionately about teaching and learning. We need each other.
