The AI Blueprint Summit Appleton, WI | June 17-18, 2026
A two-day working retreat where school leadership teams build a clear AI Blueprint around the Five Responsibilities every school must address in an AI-shaped world.
AI is Already in Your School.
Are You Leading It…or Reacting to It?
AI is reshaping classrooms faster than most schools can respond.
Expectations vary.
Faculty are unsure.
Students are experimenting.
Parents are asking questions.
And leadership teams are left wondering:
Do we have a plan–or just temporary answers?
AI will shape your school. The question is whether you will lead it.
Leading well in an AI-shaped world requires three things…
Step 1: Know Your Responsibilities
Every school has five core responsibilities when it comes to AI:
Anchoring AI use in your mission
Defining what counts as learning
Establishing clear boundaries
Equipping faculty & staff
Building a positive AI culture
Step 2: Get Everyone on the Same Page
AI cannot be led by one person. It requires alignment across your leadership team. That team typically includes:
Head of School or Principal
Dean of Academics / Instructional Leader
Dean of Students
Lead Teachers
Technology Director
This is the team responsible for how AI is implemented in your school. That’s why this team should attend the AI Blueprint Summit together.
Step 3: Build a Clear Plan (Your AI Blueprint)
You don’t need more AI tools. You need clarity, unity, and execution. Your school gets that by:
Articulating a clear AI position aligned to your mission
Defining what counts as learning in your school
Establishing consistent expectations across classrooms
Equipping faculty with shared language and confidence
Implementing a 90-day plan with visible next steps
At the AI Blueprint Summit, Your Team Will Complete These 3 Steps
In two days, your team will clarify your responsibilities, align your leadership, and leave with a complete AI Blueprint for your school.
