The Rowland Foundation 2023 Annual Conference

Event Description:

The 12th Annual Rowland Conference will take place at the University of Vermont’s Davis Center on October 26, 2023. The Annual Rowland Conference is the largest educational conference in Vermont and convenes teachers, guidance counselors, administrators, school board members, policymakers, and students from around the state. Growing Community: Making Space for Joy & Creativity in School is the theme of this year’s conference with the poet, essayist, and educator Ross Gay providing the keynote address. The Annual Rowland Conference also includes morning and afternoon workshops facilitated by leading Vermont educators and authors. To view the full agenda, please click here.

To share new learning, the Rowland Foundation encourages schools/districts to register eight-member teams, which is more cost-effective than individual registrations. Team members often include the principal, teachers, coordinators, support staff, and school board members. Superintendents can be added to the team, as the ninth team member, for no additional charge. Once a school/district team has been registered, it will be possible to add up to three students, space permitting, for a nominal charge. 

Conference Accessibility:

The Rowland Foundation is joyfully committed to providing equal access to all attendees at the Annual Rowland Conference. During registration you will be invited to request accommodations needed for you or any members of your team to participate. To help plan for such requests, please refer to our 2023 Conference Accessibility Statement.
