Carnegie Summit

The Carnegie Foundation’s annual Summit provides A unique opportunity for a vibrant and diverse community committed to improvement in education TO come together to learn with and from each other.

Thank you again for your presence, your hearts and minds, and all you did to make our 11th Carnegie Summit an extraordinary gathering. We’re grateful to our 2024 keynote speakers, Dr. Brandi Hinnant-Crawford and Heather McGhee, for inspiring attendees with their work to redefine improvement as a pursuit of justice.

We cannot wait to hear the stories that emerge from brave actions in the coming months!

CARNEGIE SUMMIT THROUGH THE YEARS

In just eleven years, the Carnegie Summit community has not only increased in size, it has also grown in thought and practice. The Summit provides for those new to improvement, opportunities to learn about the productive use of improvement principles, networks, and supportive methods and tools; for those already engaged in improvement, opportunities to present their progress in sessions and at poster receptions; and for all attendees, a space for learning about practices that are resulting in measurable improvements and achieving ambitious goals for students.
