Enjoy breakfast in the Dining Commons (show your Copenhaver Institute badge for entry) or grab a breakfast snack on the upstairs balcony on your way to your morning session.
PLEASE NOTE: The Dining Commons entry will close at 9:00 AM, but you may relax and enjoy your breakfast inside the Commons until sessions begin.
Our 25th Birthday award luncheon will feature presentation of the 2025 Copenhaver Contribution to Education Award to Mrs. Tamara Teaff. Following the award presentation Dr. Shamari Reid will share a message intended to inspire participants to prioritize their humanity, self-regard and self care during these trying times.
Dr. Reid will meet and greet in the Ballroom between the award luncheon. We will also be selling his book, Humans Who Teach: A guide to centering love, justice, and liberation in schools, and he will be happy to sign it for you.
