Introducing the Spark Symposium for Charter Schools

Join us on May 20th, 2025 at the Statehouse Convention Center for the Spark Symposium!

The 2025 Spark Symposium for Charter Schools is designed to spark ideas, connections, and growth within the charter school community. Attendees can look forward to roundtable discussions, a legislative Q&A session over lunch with a panel of experts, and an awards ceremony to recognize standout achievements within the field. Our symposium will also feature an engaging keynote presentation and talks from our expert presenters, who will provide valuable insights and perspectives on the latest trends and developments in the charter school landscape.

Get ready to come together to spark ideas, connections, and growth!

More opportunities for networking than ever before.

At this year's symposium, we’re excited to introduce 'Spark Zones'—a new format designed to foster collaboration, meaningful conversations, and learning. During each Spark Zone Track, attendees can choose between two presentations from expert speakers or two roundtable discussions, ensuring you get the most relevant insights for your needs.

A content expert will facilitate each discussion to guide conversations and provide input.

Curious what’s in store?

The Symposium for Charter Schools on May 20th, 2025 builds on the success of our past Spring Charter Conferences, with an enhanced focus on offering more opportunities for interaction, engagement, and networking.
