2019 PROGRAM

In order for schools to be healthy and effective, it is critical for school administrators to listen and learn from their peers about their work. The conference this year provides an opportunity to do this. The main sessions will feature three speakers, all with current experience in school administration, with the talks organized around the theme “Strengthening Anabaptist Schools.”

• What ideas and practices make and keep our schools distinctly Christian and within the Anabaptist faith tradition?
• What can conservative Anabaptist schools learn from public schools?
• What have I learned in my years as administrator of an Anabaptist school?
• How can administrators serve and empower the staff?
