Hosted by the Black Principals Network, the Southern Regional Leadership Summit will be an energizing two-day experience in Atlanta, designed to equip and elevate Black school leaders. Together, we’ll engage in high-impact professional learning, connect with regional peers, and find space to recharge—personally and professionally.

This isn’t another conference. It’s a space to reflect on our journeys, reimagine what’s possible in our schools, and rise into our collective power as leaders who change systems from the inside out.
