Join us for three days of learning, collaboration, and inspiration at Walt Disney World’s Yacht & Beach Club Resort and Convention Center
June 29 – July 1, 2026
NTHF’s Education Summit 2026 is more than just an event — it’s a celebration of teaching and a catalyst for the future of education. Educators from across the nation will come together to share, collaborate, and grow. Inspired by National Teachers Hall of Fame inductees and other great presenters, participants will engage in a powerful learning experience that connects colleagues and reimagines education. Registration includes the opening and closing receptions, all presentation sessions, and all meals in the program agenda. In addition, registrants are invited to a reception in the EPCOT theme park that includes VIP viewing of the beautiful, nighttime celebration, “Luminous: The Symphony of Us.”
Celebrating our Profession . . .
Inspiring our Future
All educators are welcome! Whether you’re an aspiring teacher, new to the profession, or an experienced educator, our goal for the summit is to create a collaborative network to support our ongoing work. The theme of Summit 2026 is “Celebrating our Profession. Inspiring our Future.” We will honor educators, share best practices, celebrate our profession, and call upon our collective expertise and experience to inspire the future. During the entire Summit, participants will truly engage with the idea of a Symphony of Us — a reminder that the profession thrives when diverse voices, talents, and experiences join together! We want participants to know one another, not simply sit near one another. The program is designed so that educators can connect, share stories, and build a network that extends beyond the event. Join the gathering this summer, and let’s inspire the future . . . together.
