The Educators Summer Symposium provides opportunities for educators, school resource officers, parents and community members to participate in practical, research-based sessions designed to provide information, stimulate discussion, and foster personal and professional growth.

 Sessions are presented by national, regional and local experts who will provide research-based information and practical ideas. Many sessions are interactive with time for participants to network.

Last year, over 700 participants from 120 different communities participated in this educational event.

Please join us for the 4th Annual Educators Summer Symposium!
