The High School Leaders Forum opens the doors to an ICLE flagship school to give educators an opportunity to see Catholic liberal arts education in practice at an upper school (high school). Registrants observe classes, speak with faculty, and participate in seminars and workshops on various aspects of transitioning into, launching, and running a Catholic liberal arts school with special emphasis on curriculum and pedagogy. The program size is limited. Due to the limited size of the program, the number of registrants from each school is limited to five.

What Past Participants Say

"The High School Leaders Forum provided both the inspiration and practical advice that we need to continue working toward the renewal of authentic Catholic education in the high school grades at our school. These two days probably saved us years of work!"

"This was an inspiring and eye opening conference on how a true classical school operates. A conference like this should be mandatory for all teachers and staff of schools transitioning or thinking of transitioning to a classical education."

"The Forum provided me with the opportunity to observe an intentionally Catholic, integrated, classical school AND hear from every category of stakeholders with the result that I left with inspiration and energy to contemplate how to take the next steps to lead my school forward."
