LEARN. APPLY. LEAD. MAKE AN IMPACT.
“What if the learning we experience today could transform the impact we make tomorrow? What if we moved beyond learning new ideas to putting them into action, strengthening our leadership, and making a difference for students across Georgia?”
The 2027 Spring Summit brings educators, instructional coaches, school leaders, and professional learning advocates together around one purpose: turning learning into meaningful impact.
ONE DAY. TWO PARTS. THREE STRANDS.
ONE PURPOSE: IMPACT.
Part 1: Discover & Connect
Explore promising practices, examine evidence, and build connections.
Part 2: Collaborate & Activate
Apply learning, develop strategies, and commit to measurable next steps.
A Featured Keynote You Won't Want to Miss
The 2027 Spring Summit will open with an inspiring keynote designed to set the tone for a day of learning, connecting, and leading. More details about the keynote speaker, breakout sessions, and session facilitators are coming soon.

Share Your Expertise: Call for Proposals Now Open
We invite educators, instructional coaches, school and district leaders, professional learning leaders, and CTAE/workforce partners to submit proposals for 90-minute interactive virtual sessions focused on translating professional learning into improved practice and measurable outcomes.
Key Summit Dates
What We're Looking For
- A clear challenge or need and three measurable participant outcomes
- Evidence-informed approaches, examples of effectiveness, or a credible plan to assess impact
- Interactive learning rather than lecture: polls, chat, collaborative documents, case analysis, breakout rooms, reflection, or practice
- A practical tool, resource, strategy, or implementation plan participants can use immediately
- Connections to educator practice, student learning, and sustained improvement
Session Expectations
90-minute virtual sessions with at least two distinct interaction opportunities and a concrete participant takeaway. Suggested session design flow:
Proposals should describe facilitation strategies, technology needs, accessibility considerations, and how participants will transfer learning into practice. Proposals are reviewed for strand alignment, relevance, virtual facilitation quality, evidence of impact, practical application, accessibility, and presenter expertise. The leadership panel and virtual roundtable are curated separately by LFGA and are not part of this call.
Join us March 19, 2027, and help lead Georgia forward.
Open to the public. Educators, coaches, district staff, and instructional leaders across Georgia and beyond are welcome.
