Biennial Fall Institute

The Center for Progressive Education organizes and hosts a biennial progressive education institute, with keynote speakers and workshops led by teachers from Presidio Hill School and other San Francisco Bay Area and West Coast schools, where like-minded educators come together to learn from each other about progressive philosophy and pedagogy. Our first institute, in the summer of 2017, was organized around the theme of Inquiry to Action in the Classroom. Our latest institute, in October 2018, focused on Reaching and Teaching All Learners. Current plans call for us to host additional institutes in the fall, every other year, to alternate with the annual Progressive Education Network National Conference.

Our next institute, Beyond Binary Thinking, is scheduled for October 2–3, 2020.
