2025 Convention

Exhibitors played a vital role in the success of this year’s convention, offering attendees direct access to innovative tools.

We extend our deepest gratitude to all of our convention sponsors. Your generous support made it possible for us to bring school leaders from across the country together to share ideas, build solidarity and chart a course for the future of public education.

Your commitment goes far beyond logos and banners—it represents an investment in the people who work every day to create safe, supportive and successful schools. Because of your sponsorship, we were able to provide meaningful sessions, inspiring speakers and unforgettable moments that will leave a lasting impact on our members.

“Unionism for school leaders is more important now than ever. But too many districts still engage teachers while ignoring administrators.”

"There is a lot of uncertainty in Washington, and they weren’t planning to release it if they hadn’t heard from folks like you. Your advocacy, your education—it really helped make that happen."
Union leaders must ask the questions, tell your stories, and connect deeply and authentically with your members.
AI may help us in powerful ways, but nothing can replace the role of principals and teachers in connecting with students.

AI is rapidly transforming how school leaders manage daily operations, communicate with families and design student learning experiences.
