Past Summer Institutes

While the annual Winter Institute is hosted by a different independent school each year, the Summer Institute for Classroom Teachers was initially hosted annually by Santa Fe Preparatory School and the IHM Retreat Center in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Starting in 2017, we welcomed two cohorts of classroom teachers for back-to-back institutes.

After hosting and Online Summer Institute in 2020, Summer Institute has moved around the country. See below for previous dates, discipline groups and facilitator bios.
