High School Transformation Member Exchange Series

Join NASBE for a new High School Transformation Member Exchange series, exploring what it takes to create the policy conditions to transform high schools. The series will be held virtually from August 2026 through July 2027, with sessions on the third Thursday of the month from 3–4:30 pm ET.

 

 

During this series, you’ll

  • Join six structured learning sessions with state peers and national subject matter experts;
  • Develop a State Snapshot of your state’s story across the series;
  • Connect with a peer from another state thinking through similar issues (where matches are available); and
  • Build an action plan to your state’s high school transformation efforts.

Ready to join?

Whether your state is already deep in transformative work or just starting to think about the future of high school, all NASBE members are welcome to join this Member Exchange series! Complete this interest survey to register, and contact Caroline Flower with questions.
