✨ Thank You for Launching Something Extraordinary: ISEEN’s Inaugural Catalyst Institute✨ 

Last month, something remarkable happened high in the Rocky Mountains. Thirty-five visionary school leaders from 14 schools across the United States gathered in Estes Park, Colorado, for the inaugural ISEEN Catalyst Institute—a five-day immersive retreat designed to unite, empower, and activate change-makers ready to bring experiential learning from the periphery to the core of their schools.

With sweeping views of snow-capped mountains and around fireside conversations, participants explored what bold, mission-driven school transformation can look like. They left not only inspired, but equipped—with personalized action plans, practical leadership tools, and monthly coaching cohorts to ensure that real change takes root in their school communities.

We have some updates on the development of ISEEN’s new program: ISEEN Catalyst Institute. Yes, you heard it first here, we have an official name! The Save the Date email announcing the location and dates is coming later this month. 

We will be launching the application process in April, with early access for folks who expressed a keen interest in the new program and ISEEN Member Schools. Here is a short description of the Institute to pique your interest:

It is our honor to introduce the newly formed Institute for Experiential Education Integration Design Team and Project Manager. Thanks to a generous grant from the EE Ford Foundation, we have hired this outstanding part-time team, who will collaborate on a design sprint to create the new IEEI in under six months.
