This live virtual event is hosted by DCSC member, City Neighbors Foundation.
Ten years ago, City Neighbors Foundation sought to create an opportunity for educators and advocates to gather, learn, and network. They added inspirational keynote speakers, provided breakfast and lunch, and the first Progressive Education Summit was born. And they committed to provide all of it at no cost to the participants.
Ten years later, this event calls to reimagine schools rooted in democracy, social justice, and authentic engagement. In acknowledgment of the new virtual landscape, this Summit is held over the course of several days using an entirely revised and virtual format:
- Tuesday, January 19, 7 PM: Kickoff and 10th Anniversary Keynote Speaker
- Thursday, January 21, 5 PM: Workshop Night!
- Saturday, January 23, 9 AM: Reimagining Education: Polyvocal Keynote & Master Classes
