Member Meetings

Welcome to the 2025-2026 school year; we are so glad to continue our work together. This year, we will continue exploring the theme “Everyone has a role to play in the culture of a small school”, recognizing the unique influence each of us has in shaping truly equitable and inclusive learning environments.

We are a collaborative organization, which means that the GPDC is sustained through the work of its collective members. We hope that through member meetings and planning events, we will share the work we are all doing in our respective schools.

Our meetings will take place on the following Mondays, from 4:00 to 5:30pm to give folx time to travel to the meetings. For those who cannot meet in person, you are invited to join us virtually.

Meeting Locations

As a collaborative organization, we are again offering our members an opportunity to host and facilitate our meetings this year with some guidance. This gives your school a chance to showcase your institution’s innovative work while fostering valuable connections with peer schools. Let us know if you would like to host one of these meetings.
