Leading Together: The NAES Workshop on Church-School Relations

Join two pairs of seasoned parish day school rector-head teams for an in-depth exploration of church-school relations, including governance and lines of authority, the rector-head relationship, and managing both the day-to-day and longer-term needs of church and school.

Atlanta Historical and Civil Rights Tour ($)
- Meet on the International Level by the Escalators to be escorted to the Motorcoach
Led by a 'Presenting Atlanta' tour guide, we will travel down Auburn Avenue, and proceed to the Martin Luther King, Jr. Historic District where Dr. King was born, grew up, preached, and was buried. We will stop at the National Park Service Visitors Center and the Martin Luther King, Jr. Center for Social Change where his grave site is located. From there, you will see Ebenezer Baptist Church and the birth home of MLK. This area, one of the oldest neighborhoods in Atlanta, is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Other areas of interest will include a drive through the campus of Atlanta University, Edgewood Avenue, and through the heartbeat of Atlanta: Centennial Olympic Park noting the Georgia Aquarium, The World of Coke, and the Center for Human and Civil Rights Museum. |

St. Anne's Day School Tour ($)
Saint Anne’s Day School has been a thriving mission of St. Anne's Episcopal Church since 1966. In 1994, the school learned of the world-renowned preschools and infant-toddler centers in Reggio-Emilia, Italy. Being intrigued with how the values of the schools in that Italian municipal system resonated with their own beliefs about young children’s learning, Saint Anne's Day School began a journey of studying, collaborating on, and interpreting the Reggio-Emilia Approach in the context of Saint Anne's Day School. They have become an inspired leader to the Reggio-Emilia approach through Project Infinity, connecting to other schools in Georgia and South Carolina. Tour this thriving early childhood and after-school program campus in the woods of Buckhead, where the rich environment will introduce you to a true application of Reggio-Emilia! |
