2025 Fall Forum | We Are Not Alone

The San Francisco Coalition of Essential Small Schools is bringing back the Fall Forum!
Date: November 7-9, 2025
Theme: We Are Not Alone: A Gathering for Educators and Communities to Focus on Healing, Disruption, and Transformation
Location: TBD
Given the current climate, it is more important than ever to come together - to heal, reflect, and commit to interrupting harmful patterns in our schools and communities. Whether you’re a student, teacher, administrator, community leader, or advocate, this gathering is for you.
This in-person conference will kick off with a pre-conference and school visits on Friday, November 7, offering a chance to engage directly with innovative school communities in the Bay Area. On Saturday, November 8, we will hear from leaders in the field - with a priority for those presenters lifting student voice in their facilitation and/or content. On that evening, we will celebrate together with beverages, hors d’oeuvres, a silent auction, and an awards program.
Finally, the conference will conclude with a half-day on Sunday, November 9 with workshops focused on supporting you to take your learning back to your sites.
Help shape this event!
Do you have a session idea rooted in equity, student voice, healing-centered practices, or transformative change? We want to hear from you! Your contributions are what make this forum a meaningful and energizing space.
