NAIS invites you and your staff members to submit your proposals to present=
a one-hour or three-hour workshop at the 2011 NAIS Annual Conference, Febr=
uary 23-25, at the Gaylord National Convention Center in National Harbor, M=
D (just outside of Washington, DC). This year's theme is Monumental Opportu=
nities: Advancing Our Public Purpose. Can you think of a better time to me=
et in our nation's capital than when politics has focused on national stand=
ards? Over the years, our schools have experienced an unprecedented period =
of growth, but times (and markets) have changed - requiring our community t=
o unite collectively in ongoing dialogue about what it takes to be independ=
ent school leaders - both now and in the future. These times require break=
through thinking and creativity, and the 2011 NAIS Annual Conference intend=
s to "disrupt" traditional notions about education and "switch" to more res=
ilient and adaptive models. Please share your expertise with your colleagu=
es.
Submit your workshop proposal online before June 1 at: http://www.nais.org/=

Michelle Rhee, The Chancellor of Washington, DC's public schools (an indepe=
ndent school graduate herself!) issued a call to arms at the 2009 NAIS Annu=
al Conference, asking our audience, "Do we, as a nation, have what it takes=
to ensure that every child in America gets a quality education?" Join NAI=
S in answering this call.
Cheers.
