Leadership Summit (Recordings Not Included)

Free Virtual One-Day Summit | May 7, 2026

Leading a Small School Is Different

And your professional development should be, too.

Whether you’re a Head of School, part of an administrative leadership team, or serving on a Board, leading a small school comes with a unique set of challenges and opportunities. 

You’re closer to the work, closer to your community, and often wearing multiple hats at once. What works for large schools doesn’t always translate—and generic leadership conferences don’t always meet the moment.

The Small School Leaders Leadership Summit, taking place on May 7, 2026, was created specifically for leaders navigating the realities of small schools.

This free, one-day virtual summit brings together experienced school leaders and industry experts to share practical insights, real-world strategies, and perspectives you can use right away.

    • Resilient Leadership: Developing Competencies to Lead in Challenging Times

  • Space to reflect, learn, and gain momentum heading into summer planning

Registration Details

  • Live attendance on May 7, 2026 is free

Our goal is simple: to give small school leaders a meaningful spring reset—fresh ideas, renewed confidence, and tools to help you lead well through the end of the year and into what’s next.
