About the event

The 1.5-day interactive retreat for math and science district leaders will be held at the Intercontinental Hotel in Chicago, Illinois from October 20–21, 2022. During the retreat, you will spend your time in interactive workshops while learning from thought-leaders, and will also have time to collaborate with other district leaders.

By attending, you will:

  • Immerse yourself in the latest math and science education trends with thought leaders and subject-matter experts.
  • Expand your leadership network while sharing challenges and success stories with other district leaders.
  • Build action plans that you can bring back to your district in interactive workshops.
