The Teaching Lives of Chaplains
What does it mean to be a classroom teacher and how can chaplains advance a relevant and enriching religious studies program? We’ll explore the practical skills and demands of being a classroom teacher and then use the newly updated religious studies curriculum from Anglican Schools Australia and NAES to model and explore a developmentally-appropriate K-12 scope and sequence. Bring your best ideas and practices!

Group A - The Administrative and Relational Live of Chaplains
This session will invite participants to reflect on the variety of ways in which chaplains are called to relate to different constituents in our school communities. Specifically, we will focus on relationships in three different settings: within the administrative team; among faculty/staff colleagues, trustees, and alumni; and in relationship to the head of school. The hope is that this session will inspire a high degree of participation and collaboration, together envisioning the best of what these different relationships call for.

Group B - The Collegial Lives of Chaplains
Chaplains wear a variety of hats and are called on to perform any number of tasks. From planning and leading worship to pastoral care, from advising a school group to working with the local parish, the chaplain seems to be always on call. Knowing how to navigate these varied constituencies is a learned and cultivated skill. This session will encourage participants to share experiences and ideas that work in their school context and communities. What has been successful for you and your chaplaincy in building collegial relationships with the various constituencies in your community: parish rectors, youth ministers, chaplains (local and national), supportive faculty, less supportive faculty, administration, families, etc? At the end of the session it is hoped that the participants will have shared insights and ideas as to the best practices for building bridges and explore boundaries in our school communities.

Group B - The Pastoral Lives of Chaplains
Each of the presenters will give a brief description of his or her pastoral role in current and past school communities, touching on a range of topics including prayer, grief, community crisis, pastoral visits, sacramental ministry, care in an interfaith community, outreach, self-care, and more. Presenters will then facilitate a discussion around the ways that different schools approach pastoral care, how a school’s culture, Episcopal identity, and spiritual landscape may affect the role of the chaplain as pastor, some of the challenges commonly faced by chaplains, and best practices of pastoral care in a school setting.

Group B - The Priestly and Prophetic Lives of Chaplains
The chaplain is the steward of a number of “identities” in the life and ministry of a school. As it has often been for priests and prophets, it can be the call of the chaplain to encourage and challenge the community to recall its spiritual, liturgical, and missional identities, and to watch and listen carefully for how these are being lived out in daily practice. This important work of the chaplain then invites noticing, celebrating, evaluation, and amending, to ensure the authenticity of who the school claims to be. Participants are asked to bring to this session their school’s various guidelines and statements of mission, vision, values, and purpose, especially those related to areas of worship, spiritual growth, and religious identity. (We may consider recent NAES “Best Practices” documents as well.) Together we will share and develop goals, criteria, procedures, and outcomes to assist us in supporting and sustaining these ministries of the chaplain.
