During our 2017 Summer Institute, private-independent school administrators from around the world gathered in Wilmington, DE, to develop effective strategies, create action plans, and network with their peers and colleagues.

It was an extremely successful event with administrators participating in 26 different workshops throughout the four-week conference. Those new to their position as well as seasoned pros made their way to the Wilmington Riverfront, all leaving with a concrete action plan in hand and new relationships with fellow private-independent school peers.

Today we’re sharing highlights from our 2017 Summer Institute. If you missed out on attending, don’t fret! There are many more opportunities for professional development throughout the school year. We’re offering a number of school-year workshops across the country this fall. The Business and Operations Academy for experienced business professionals will take place October 22–25 in St. Louis, MO, and you can always tune in to a webinar from the comfort of your school.
