Administrators Conference & Retreat

Dates: 
Jan 18, 2024 to Jan 20, 2024
The effectiveness of our schools depends significantly on the effectiveness of the school administrator. This retreat helps administrators build vision for their schools and become effective leaders.

2023 PROGRAM

In the midst of the demands and pressures of school leadership, an administrator’s source of inspiration and direction is critical. Techniques and tools can be helpful, but there is no substitute for a heart set on God and a life that is deeply rooted in His ways. In the three general sessions, Brian Yoder (Floyd, VA) will focus on what it means to live and work out of a deep and abiding relationship with God.

In the divided session, Tyler Hochstetler will lead a work session that will speak to some of the key legal issues that are confronting Christian schools today. In addition, he will lead a policy-writing practicum for school administrators and host a Q/A on legal issues. . During the same time, Susan Schlabach (Georgetown, OH) will present a session for administrator's wives.
