Living in a region so vast and complex has strengthened professional generosity, emboldened innovation across schools, and firmly established collaboration as the corner-stone of NESA’s success.
NESA Member School Communities of Practice meet monthly on Zoom in Live Forums to collaborate on our common goal of school transformation.
NEW! Strategic Support Sessions for NESA Member Schools are online, collaborative meetings with specialists to build connections, receive consultation, and engage in strategic planning.

How do we re-center hope? On our final episode of the season, NESA Executive Director Maddy Hewitt joins Abril in conversation and they discuss regenerative models of education, next year's NESA program, and the case for evidence-based hope.
TieCare's Mark Tomaszewski and Donn Osterlund recently met up for lunch with NESA's Laura Canellopoulou in Anaheim, California, where she was visiting family during Spring Break.
