Summer Conference

July 30-August 1, 2025

Shanty Creek Resort, Bellaire, MI

Where bold ideas and student-centered innovation shape the future of education.

Join a community of forward-thinking educators, leaders, and policymakers committed to redefining public education. The MiCoOp Summer Conference is more than an event—it’s a catalyst for change. Through dynamic discussions, hands-on sessions, and invaluable networking, participants will explore cutting-edge instructional strategies, emerging technologies, and practical solutions to empower students as active drivers of their learning.

This conference is designed for those who challenge the status quo—superintendents, principals, virtual and partnership school leaders, teachers, mentors, board members, and legislators—each playing a vital role in reimagining education. Come ready to engage, innovate, and lead the movement toward a more personalized, student-centered future.

Together, we’ll turn bold ideas into actionable change.

*This conference is free for MiCoOp members. For non-members, the conference fee is $150 for one day or $250 for both days. Once your registration is submitted, an invoice will be sent. Contact Lisa, [email protected], with registration questions.
