AWTT Education Director Connie Carter, along with teachers Caitlin Hutt and Samantha Maheu, will be presenting at the “Every Teacher a Leader Conference” on July 30 at Thomas College in Waterville, Maine. The theme of their session is “Use Your Voice to Make a Difference.”
The question is not “How can you, one person, make a difference?” The question is “What kind of difference do you want to make?” Learn about Americans Who Tell the Truth education resources and be inspired to guide students to use their voices and become change-makers.
“The ‘Every Teacher a Leader’ conference is more than just professional development – it’s a call to action. This conference creates a space where educators don’t just gain strategies; they see themselves and each other as agents of change, capable of influencing classrooms, schools, and entire communities, and called to lift others!”
This year’s 3-day conference, July 29-31, 2026, is billed as a two-part gathering, titled 2026 ElevatED. “Through a partnership between the Maine Department of Education and Educate Maine/the Teach Maine Center, this event brings together the 2026 Maine DOE Annual Summit and the second annual Every Teacher a Leader Conference for three days of collaboration, inspiration, and high-quality learning for Maine’s education workforce.”
