The National Superintendents Roundtable (NSR) is a professional learning network for school superintendents with a focus on relationship building and informing the field/positively impacting education policy. We believe fiercely in the value of public education and provide experiences that highlight the need for and benefits of providing engaging educational experiences for every child.

 

Members of NSR can expect two annual meetings, one a reception at AASA’s national conference each winter and another National Symposium in the fall. A monthly virtual meeting featuring both nationally-known speakers and our own members maintains a regular cadence for connection and learning throughout the year. Written summaries are provided for each speaker-based meeting and weekly e-mail newsletters capturing the latest news in the field of education are distributed on Friday mornings. 

 

The National Superintendents Roundtable is the successor to a Danforth Foundation network established in 1992 and has operated independently since 2006. NSR and the Schlechty Center entered into a partnership on September 30, 2021, bringing the two veteran, non-profit organizations together under one roof to better serve school superintendents. The Roundtable maintains its own network identity separate from the Schlechty Center’s Superintendents Leadership with opportunities for superintendents to join in some activities together.
