See What’s in Store for the 2026 Summer Learning Retreat!

The 2026 Summer Professional Learning Retreat is just a few months away, and we're excited to announce the topics for this three day event series and give you a glimpse at some of the exciting sessions you can expect.

Taking place virtually on June 9th, 10th, and 11th, this three day event offers a flexible learning experience, allowing you to choose sessions that best align with your professional goals and the needs of your students. Each session is eligible for PD hours!

And here’s the best part: you don’t have to attend live to benefit from the sessions. Whether you're traveling or have a prior commitment, there's no need to worry. Everyone who registers will receive full access to all session recordings, materials, and resources after the event, so you won’t miss a thing.

Last year, the 2025 Summer Retreat marked new highs for registration and attendance, welcoming more than 400 virtual attendees and generating 2,740 session registrations across 26 offerings. We hope to reach even more this year!
