Last spring, during a time of true uncertainty, an idea was born among friends to elevate the boarding school conversation. We set aside the elevator pitch about our individual schools and embraced the mantra that “rising tides lift all boats”. As graduates ourselves, we joined forces to virtually engage with families (touching well over one thousand) to share passionately the lifelong value proposition of a boarding school education. More importantly, through this work together, we learned to lean on each other when we had questions but no answers. We scrimmaged social justice and the state of our world, enrollment challenges, work/life balance, and everything in between. In Seattle, we are excited to host a panel that encourages more teamwork and partnership within our industry. Following a survey of colleagues, we will touch upon hot topics with ample opportunity for group discussion and audience participation, all with the hope of encouraging more connections and collaboration moving forward. Whether you are brand new to the world of enrollment management or a seasoned veteran, please join us for this interactive session.
