Tomorrow's Principal Podcast: Don't Stop at Disruption

Disruption isn't the point--what we build after it is what matters. This live podcast takes on the overloaded buzzword and reframes it: not as chaos, but as a chance to redesign the principalship. What happens when tech, politics, and pressure collide with a role already stretched thin? We'll explore how principals can seize opportunities in the midst of perceived chaos and how systems must change with them. With global models, bold ideas, and honest questions, we'll map out what should stay, what should shift, and the future-ready leadership it really takes to meet the moment head-on.

Teaching for All with Less: Bold Moves in Inclusive Practice

Traditional differentiation is dead. Every child can grow--if given the chance. But too many neurodivergent students disengage when teachers lack the tools to adapt. With limited budgets and rising classroom complexity, we need a shift: inclusive education must become the standard, not the specialist's job. This session challenges old models and showcases bold, realistic ways to embed adaptive teaching, reward innovation, and empower every educator--without asking for more time or money, just better thinking.

Early Days Again: What AI Makes Possible for New Schools

AI tools are improving quickly, and educators are already finding meaningful uses for them. What hasn't been defined yet is the school model that makes AI work for students and teachers in a coherent, reliable way at scale. This session examines what early adopters of AI in public education are learning in real classrooms and school systems, the concrete design choices and conditions behind early success, and the operational, instructional, and governance questions that must be resolved over the next five years for AI to strengthen public education rather than fragment it. Presented by City Fund.
