The BOND Academy, the BOND Project’s yearly conference, will take place from April 25th through April 27th at Bowie State University, the oldest HBCU in Maryland. The Academy features powerful presentations and discussions on instructional strategies, career advancement, community building, cultural proficiency, and social emotional learning, primarily through the lens of male educators of color. Practitioners at every level of education (teachers, professors, counselors, para-educators, administrators, central office staff, student teachers) are welcome, as well as community leaders, board of education members, elected officials, and interested community members.

The BOND Academy attracts practitioners at every level of education to attend the conference. The Academy has college/university faculty and teacher candidates who attend and present at the Academy. Central office staff and administrators (e.g., superintendents, equity directors, etc.), school-based administrators, and staff (e.g., teachers, principals, assistant principals, paraeducators, counselors, etc.) from the District of Columbia, Maryland, and Virginia [DMV] and around the United States attend and present at the BOND Academy. Community leaders, state and local board of education members, elected officials, and community members attend the BOND Academy to network, learn, and engage with the educational community.
