Pathways to the Peak!

Inspired by the purposeful trek of climbing Mount Everest, where climbers use careful planning, teamwork, and a clear purpose to reach their goal, educators must create a path guided by a strong vision, determination, and an ongoing commitment to educational excellence. This year, the 2025 DCI Summit will explore purposeful leading, teaching, and learning by addressing the following objectives:
  • Sustaining Purpose and Motivation
  • Visionary Leadership
  • Recharting Your Course
  • Building Resilient Teams
  • Data-Based Decision Making
In addition, Dave Stuart, Jr., a nationally recognized speaker, teacher, and author of These 6 Things: How to Focus Your Teaching on What Matters Most and The Will to Learn: Cultivating Student Motivation Without Losing Your Own will be joining us for both an engaging and timely keynote presentation and breakout session. See you at the Summit!
