Chestnut Hill, MA
WELCOME TO FUTURE FOCUSED
Future FocusED brings together educators and industry leaders to talk about expanding education—and the future of teaching and learning—in a space and format designed to effect change. Hosted by and at Beaver Country Day School—a globally-recognized leader in education—this immersive conference is a "learning-by-doing" experience for anyone in the education field.
Attendees will leave these two days inspired by big questions and collaborative conversations—full of creative ideas, connections to partner with, and new tools in their toolkits to do the work.
ESSENTIAL QUESTION
How do we expand the nature of school?
HERE'S WHAT TO EXPECT
We believe in the collaborative nature of learning, and we've structured the two-day Future FocusED experience to reflect that.
We are excited to announce our keynote Tony Wagner, who you'll hear from on Day 1. We are also in the process of confirming many additional phenomenal speakers. As a school that has diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice at the core of who we are, our conference, speakers, and presenters will reflect and celebrate the value of multiple perspectives, experiences, backgrounds, and identities.
Additionally, at the conference, you'll also have the opportunity to learn new skills in our Skills Lab, grow and expand ideas in the BVR Incubator, and get inspired through presentations and workshops.
On Day 2—in addition to more incredible sessions—we're also excited to invite you to meet our students and teachers and observe our classes in action to see how we are expanding the nature of the school every day.
ESSENTIAL QUESTION
What's the future of teaching and learning?
PLAN YOUR VISIT
We're thrilled to welcome you to our stunning, state-of-the-art campus in Chestnut Hill, MA—which is less than 10 miles from downtown Boston.
We believe a big part of an impactful conference experience is in the details of the where and the how of making connections with people and perspectives from all over. So, in addition to planning two days of phenomenal sessions and immersive experiences, we also have some things up our sleeve to ensure you have plenty of time to meet others and have some fun.
