MAEC is a grassroots regional network committed to centering, connecting, and uplifting educators of color in independent schools across the Mid-Atlantic region. We are small by design, relational at our core, and grounded in collective care.
Through regional gatherings, shared learning, and our annual conference, we deepen relationships, nurture leadership, strengthen belonging, and contribute to making independent schools more welcoming and sustaining environments for educators and families of color.
There are no required dues. You are a member of MAEC when you show up — to gatherings, to committees, to the work of building this community together.
MAEC thrives because we build it together.
Every year we convene educators of color from across the region for two full days of keynotes, practitioner sessions, community, and celebration. One registration covers both days.
Join a network of educators of color who show up for each other — in their schools, in the region, and in the work of building something that lasts.
