Leader’s Day and Practicums

Academic Leader's Day
New: Renewing Christian Rhetoric for Contemporary Classrooms
More Practicums Announced Soon!
One day that inspires all year
Pre-conference workshops and gatherings provide teachers, school leaders, and administrative staff with targeted topics to help them as they work in schools day-to-day. Just as importantly, these gatherings bring like-minded people together for fellowship and prayer.
- Leader’s Day and Practicums will be held on June 18, 2025 – the day before the official opening of the conference.
- Many attendees remark that these targeted workshops and meetings provide not just practical information, but a helpful extra day to get settled in before the main conference begins.
Meet with and learn alongside experienced leaders who can encourage and assist as you guide our movement forward. Come together to advise and pray for one another.
New this year!
ACADEMIC LEADERS DAY is a second Leader’s Day offering for Repairing the Ruins, produced by the Alcuin Fellowship. This event is directed toward academic deans, department heads, lead teachers, and teachers with a focus on a topic.
Teaching Latin at Any Level
The ICL Latin Practicum is designed to help teachers at every level teach Latin with greater success. Participants are divided into tables based on interest and skill (from absolutely zero to advanced), so every participant can learn at their own skill level in a small group. Everyone will learn techniques useful for getting students to produce and understand Latin from experienced teachers. There will be tables that focus on the following: the basics, composition, advanced composition, and advanced composition/ conversation.
