The Mission District Alliance is able to send one teacher from each school to this leadership conference. I will be away from SAIC for part of the day on Wednesday and all day on Thursday and Friday. Mrs. Brady will substitute on Wednesday, Mrs. McNally on Thursday, and an outside-hire substitute teacher on Friday. If you have any questions, please send me an email.


INSTRUCTIONAL LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE
CCSE/NCEA National Institute

This conference, held annually in November at Loyola University Chicago, Water Tower Campus, is cosponsored by CCSE and NCEA for principals, assistant principals, department chairs, curriculum leaders, assistant superintendents, and teacher leaders.  Through workshop and networking sessions, nationally recognized educators connect theory and research-based practices to Catholic school instructional leadership needs and experiences.  Participants gain knowledge, resources, and tools, and have the opportunity to network with other Catholic educational leaders.
