John H. Lounsbury College of Education's 19th Annual Summit Conference. A day of professional development for current and aspiring educators. This year's theme is Architects of Change: Identity Development of Young Adolescents and Educators.

The senior middle grades cohort at Georgia College & State University is honored to invite you to attend Georgia College’s 19th annual Collegiate Middle Level Association Summit Conference. The conference will take place Friday, Oct. 6, 2023, at GCSU from 8:15 a.m. until 3 p.m. We, the current middle grades students and faculty, have decided to invite figures to speak whom we feel will aid us in our continued education to becoming teachers and can appreciate the opportunity to learn from others in our field. 

Our theme is “Architects of Change: Identity Development of Young Adolescents and Educators,” with a focus on recognizing influences in one’s past education that will affect their future classroom. It is our goal at the John H. Lounsbury College of Education for students to develop into extraordinary educators, leaders, advocates and citizens. We understand our experiences are an integral part of this process. 

We aim to create a community that will promote more positive mindsets among students, educators and community partners in all schools. These factors all play a key role in our theme of “Identity Development of Young Adolescents and Educators.” At the conference, you will have the opportunity to attend various breakout sessions to customize your learning experiences with topics that interest you. Some of these topics include Middle Level Coaching, various applications of AMLE standards in the classroom, how to integrate technology into more than just instruction, and so much more! The Summit The conference will take place at Georgia at Georgia College & State University’s Kilpatrick Hall.
