June 22-24, 2026 Registration closes on June 8. We will create a real-time, authentic, in person experience for our participants in a well-timed day that runs from 9am-9pm EST. Come for 3 days of professional development, self-care and reflection, skills building, and networking that will also allow you to debrief this school year and get ready for SY26-27!
