School transformation starts this summer


Reader, we are offering an amazing team discount for Constructing Modern Knowledge 2024, July 9-12th.

Each year, educators report that they leave Constructing Modern Knowledge reenergized and inspired to create new learning adventures for their students. Administrators tell us how sending a team of educators to CMK builds community and creates a powerful multiplying force for whole school transformation.

"This event is transformational. I just talked to a teacher a few weeks ago who mentioned CMK and how it changed her thinking regarding learning.” – James Calhoun, Colorado High School Principal

Simply put, the greatest return on investment is for schools and districts to send a team to Constructing Modern Knowledge. Read more about the power of CMK to transform schools.

– Amy Dugré, Westmark School Chief Academic Officer, California
