Teach to Lead will host its 19th Teacher Leadership Summit in San Juan, Puerto Rico, March 27–29, 2020.
The Summit will bring teacher leaders and other stakeholders together to collaborate, problem-solve, and develop action plans to benefit students and schools. Teams must include at least one practicing classroom teacher and submissions must use teacher leadership as a key strategy, but proposed ideas can address any perceived area of need in schools.
Space is limited to approximately 25 teams. Idea submissions are being accepted through Monday, February 10, 2020.
