MAESA is pleased to welcome Caroline Blackwell, Vice President for Equity and Justice at NAIS, as our keynote speaker at 10a.m. on September 27, 2019 for the MAESA Members Meeting at Episcopal High School in Alexandria, VA.
Ms. Blackwell will engage us in a
conversation about how schools can inspire an environment of support, inclusion and ultimately success for the students and adults they serve. Beginning with an examination of
why
we do what we do, Blackwell will draw on the writing of Simon Sinek’s “Start With Why” to take us deeper into the purpose that drives us in our daily work.
All of your administrators, directors, school leadership, key faculty and others are encouraged to attend our annual meeting and luncheon. An email invitation with the RSVPs link will also be sent directly to the MAESA contacts at your school. Please share this opportunity with your schools!

NAIS
’s commitment to develop and sustain inclusive independent school communities.
