WELCOME TO THE 2026 FIFTH ANNUAL EDUCATORS SUMMIT
ABOUT THE 2026 FIFTH ANNUAL EDUCATORS SUMMIT
JOIN US FOR OUR ANNUAL EDUCATORS' SUMMIT.
Courage in our Convictions: Cultivating Clarity in Chaos.
THIS YEAR'S SUMMIT WILL EQUIP and inspire all teachers, administrators, homeschoolers, and virtuous education advocates who desire to teach and lead with courage, clarity, and conviction.
We live, teach, and lead courageously within what we believe. A careful understanding of what we mean when we say Biblical worldview will be discussed, as well as how to integrate such into every curricular and co-curricular dimension of a student’s education.
Turning Point Education's philosophy and initiatives are based on nine powerful life-shaping values that form the foundation of all of our sessions, breakouts, and workshops.
This Summit will also give you practical tools, thoughtful discussions, and meaningful encouragement from exceptional speakers and other participants to equip you to make a lasting impact in the lives of your students. You will leave refreshed, prepared to stand firm in your convictions, and emboldened to help your students and colleagues do the same.
