About This Event

School administrators, directors, and pastors serving our Lutheran schools are invited to join us for the annual Joint Meeting of School Leadership.

Friday, September 25, 2026

10:00 a.m.–2:00 p.m.

CNH District Ministry Center

This yearly gathering brings together key leaders from Lutheran schools and early childhood centers throughout the CNH District for learning, conversation, and time to connect with one another.

Our presenter will be Rev. Jonathan Priest, Director of the Mission Training Center. He will lead a presentation and discussion on:

Lutheran Identity in the Relationships of School Life.

We often speak about the importance of “Lutheran identity,” but what does that identity look like in the everyday life of a school or center? How is it reflected in the way we lead, teach, serve, make decisions, and care for students and families? Jonathan will help us explore what makes our schools distinctly Lutheran, how that identity shapes our daily practices, and why the work of Lutheran education continues to matter.

Lunch will be provided for $15
