CAIS Annual Meeting 2026

Starts:  Jun 22, 2026 03:00 PM (PT)
Ends:  Jun 24, 2026 11:15 AM (PT)

While most other events are available to New School Services members, this particular event is reserved for full and provisional members only.

The CAIS Annual Meeting is where Heads of School connect, reflect, share, and belong to a community of peers. This year, we'll hear from Tara Rolle at CAPSO. Through dynamic panel conversations and candid fishbowl discussions, the best ideas come from the expertise in the room. We are also thrilled to officially welcome our new Executive Director, Phil Gutierrez.

You must register for this event in order to attend. The first registration fee is waived during checkout. A current Head of School may choose to register a second Head from the same school if there is a leadership transition or the school has a dual leadership model.

Hotel and Room Block information can be found here.


Heads may also register a guest for meals. There are two guest registration options: all meals or receptions and dinners only.
