The Conference on English Leadership (CEL) invites CEL members to join a virtual Social Hour kicking off the winter/spring 2027 semester. This session will provide a space to connect, network, and share the challenges and share the challenges and opportunities of literacy leadership in individual contexts.

These gatherings can be casual and relational while addressing the detailed work of supervision, curriculum, instruction, advocacy, assessment, and collaboration. CEL serves the important role of providing community and support for literacy leaders who may be the only English language arts department chair, supervisor, or coordinator in their locale.

 

At this event, literacy leaders will:

  • reflect on leadership and literacy strategies learned at the 2026 NCTE and/or CEL Annual Conventions,
  • discuss how to launch or maintain initiatives within their teams, and
  • network and join a community of lifelong literacy leaders.

 

Certificates of attendance are available upon request.

Please contact profdev@ncte.org with questions.
