The registration period for this meeting has ended.
Whether you are a first-time head, a new Episcopal school head, or in your second year of leadership in an Episcopal institution, this conference is for you. Heads of various types of Episcopal schools - parish day schools, early childhood programs, independent Episcopal day or boarding schools - will come together to reflect on the unique and sometimes unexpected dimensions of school leadership.
New and seasoned Episcopal school heads and NAES leaders will lead you through an examination of distinctive and oftentimes unaddressed aspects of Episcopal headship including: Episcopal identity, the spiritual life of a school, board-head and constituency relations, school finances, development and advancement issues, and the importance of self-care.
You will leave the conference ready for the joys and challenges of headship common to all independent schools and unique to Episcopal schools.
