The three information-packed days will be focused on the challenges (and uncertainties) that schools districts are facing, with an emphasis on sharing solutions to manage the changes and ensure that all students are prepared to succeed: academically, socially, and emotionally. Check out the draft agenda to get an early look at the sessions, speakers, and programming planned for this year’s conference.
New opportunities and enhancements this year made possible by our new venue, including an expanded exhibit hall and updated scheduling based on attendee feedback: earlier program start time on Wednesday (10:30am); Wednesday box lunch and interactive General Session available for a nominal $25 fee; expanded exhibit hours; Thursday evening free to dine on your own or with your team; and the conference concludes following the Awards Dinner on Friday evening. We are also excited to continue using the conference app introduced last year, giving attendees even more opportunities to connect, engage, and network throughout the conference.

The Report of the Resolutions Committee may be found here. In order for your school committee to have a vote at the annual MASC business meeting, it is necessary that an official delegate be designated. An official delegate is only that delegate whose school committee has formally voted to make them so. Delegates do not need to be registered for the conference in order to attend the Delegate Assembly. The Delegate Assembly will take place on Friday, November 6 at 3pm at the DoubleTree by Hilton Boston North Shore (conference location) – there is no charge to attend the Delegate Assembly. The Delegate Appointee form may be found here. Submissions are due by October 20, 2026.
