Chief State School Officers Retreats: Event Summary July 2022

Originating out of a conversation between several state chiefs, SAS and The Hunt Institute responded to the need for space and time to collaborate with peers and colleagues both in and outside of their states by co-creating two-day Chief State School Officers Retreats as an opportunity for state education leaders and their teams to spend time navigating the challenges their states have faced in managing the pandemic and mitigating its impact on the educational outcomes of students.

Since November 2021, The Hunt Institute and SAS have partnered to host three convenings featuring curated conversations, opportunities to learn from national experts, and time for state leaders to share the opportunities and pain points within their own state. The retreats in May and June 2022 brought together teams from 11 states. Along with teams from their state education departments, these states also were invited to bring a district superintendent to foster increased collaboration and partnership between the state and local levels.
