TASA MIDWINTER

CONFERENCE

The TASA Midwinter Conference, hosted by the Texas Association of School Administrators since 2004, has become the most popular conference of the year for Texas school administrators.

It provides such a valuable opportunity for school leaders to come together to discuss and share innovative practices, network with peers, address the issues administrators face every day, and gain fresh insights.

They include superintendents and/or other district and campus leaders — including deputy and associate superintendents, business managers, curriculum specialists, personnel administrators, technology directors, and principals.

ABOUT MIDWINTER

 

Each year, TASA’s Midwinter Conference is the perfect opportunity to network and stay connected to the happenings in education. Being able to share ideas and learn from others keeps me focused and motivated to be the best servant leader I can be for my district. I have learned so much from TASA members, and I look forward to many more years of continuous learning and growth. Thank you, TASA, for supporting our purpose!

Amanda Traylor

superintendent, Veribest ISD

I look forward to the Midwinter Conference each year. TASA has made it possible to connect with superintendents across the state, and in January, we get to see each other in person. The time is one of sharing laughter and great ideas. I come away from Midwinter rejuvenated for the Spring and thankful for the time spent with friends.
