The 77th General Convention of the Episcopal Church takes place July 5–12, 2012 in Indianapolis, Indiana. Like other Episcopal organizations, the National Association of Episcopal Schools (NAES) will be exhibiting this triennial meeting that establishes policy and direction for the Church. NAES staff and Governing Board members will be sharing the good news of Episcopal schools and monitoring and talking with bishops and deputies about legislation affecting our schools.
Sharing the Good News of Episcopal Schools
The NAES booth (1016) will be the hub of Episcopal school activity at General Convention. The booth opened on July 3 and will continue through July 10. We’ll be providing information about Episcopal schools and the Association’s publications, services, webinars and conferences. We’ll also be showing our new video series on the Episcopal Urban School Alliance. Say tuned to for more information on the widespread debut of these four 5-minute videos.
