EXPLORE MEMBERSHIP

We’ve seen an incredible amount of growth in enrollment after implementing ISM’s strategies. In 2016–17—after a year with our new strategies in place—our opening enrollment went from 492 to 520. For the 2017–2018 school year, we opened with 540 students.

PAST ATTENDEE SCHOOLS

The instructors and materials are compelling and engaging. ISM clearly has a passion for research, the results, and supporting the long-range successes of its members and participating schools.

PAST ATTENDEE SCHOOLS

This was my second ISM conference. I made the request to attend this year because of my experience at the first. ISM thinks of everything and I feel like the price is well worth it.

PAST ATTENDEE SCHOOLS

This was transformative for me in many ways. To hear other points of view and to see all of the aspects of the job so clearly has really made me rethink my practices and elevate my efficacy moving forward. My vision is clear and I now have so many resources to do the job well!

PAST ATTENDEE SCHOOLS

I honestly can’t say enough amazing things. I have learned so much here this week and can’t wait to take it all back to school and hit the ground running!
