Dear Educators and School Leaders,

On behalf of iSTEAMKC and WeCode KC, we are pleased to invite you to participate in the Educators in Technology Summit, taking place on October 9, 2026, at the Kauffman Foundation Conference Center.

The Educators in Technology Summit is a one-day, professional development–aligned convening that brings together educators, technologists, funders, industry partners, and civic leaders to explore how technology can be meaningfully, ethically, and equitably integrated into teaching and learning. The Summit emphasizes practical classroom application, culturally responsive pedagogy, and workforce-connected learning—with tools and strategies participants can immediately use in their schools and learning environments.

We invite you to join us! Educators and school leaders are warmly invited to attend as participants to gain professional learning hours, explore innovative practices, and connect with a regional network of educators and technology leaders shaping the future of teaching and learning.

*Demystify technology for educator
*Center educator voice and lived classroom experience
*Offer tools and strategies participants can immediately apply

Whether you are sharing your expertise or deepening your practice, your voice and experience are vital to this conversation. Together, we aim to strengthen educator capacity, expand access to technology, and build learning ecosystems that reflect the communities we serve.

Additional details regarding proposal submission, registration, and professional development credit will be shared soon. We look forward to welcoming you to this important regional convening.

With appreciation,

iSTEAMKC
In partnership with WeCode KC
