Welcome to the 2024 Alberta Rural Education Symposium, an enriching three-day event taking place from March 2nd to March 4th at the River Cree Resort and Casino. Under the guiding theme of "Cultivating Relationships, Nurturing Connections, and Harvesting Success," our symposium aims to explore the critical facets of governance and leadership within the context of rural education.

Throughout this engaging event, we are honoured to host a distinguished lineup of speakers, including Chief Cadmus Delorme, Dr. Leyton Schnellert, Jordan Tinney, and Dr. Ken Coates. Their expertise and insights will offer invaluable perspectives on fostering leadership and building robust relationships within the unique landscape of rural education. The symposium's highlights include the ever-popular Ministers' Panel and reception on Sunday evening, providing a platform for in-depth discussions and interactions between policymakers and attendees, focusing on the most pressing issues facing rural education today. Additionally, throughout the event, school presentations will showcase exemplary practices, innovative strategies, and success stories, offering attendees tangible takeaways for implementation in their respective educational settings.

Moreover, this event presents a golden opportunity for passionate delegates and educators in the realm of rural education to connect, collaborate, and exchange ideas. Join us at the 2024 Alberta Rural Education Symposium, where we aim to inspire, empower, and cultivate a community dedicated to nurturing the success and growth of rural education.
