Please join us on December 6th at Educate Maine's Symposium: The Pipeline to Prosperity at the Holiday Inn by the Bay in Portland. 

 

The Pipeline to Prosperity is a symposium for business, policy, education and community leaders about Maine's education pipeline from early childhood through post secondary. Last year's event brought together more than 300 of Maine's business, policy and education leaders from early childhood through higher education. We are pleased to have Nick Donohue, CEO and President of the Nellie Mae Education Foundation and the Honorable John R. "Jock" McKernan, former congressman and governor of Maine, and current President of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation, as our opening and closing speakers, respectively.

 

The agenda includes presentations, conversations and workshops for and by some of Maine's leading educators and business leaders about Maine's education pipeline. A sample of presentations and presenters include MELIG (Maine Early Learning Investment Group) CEOs Jim Clair, Chris Emmons, John Peters, Ellie Baker; the Cianbro Institute; the Maine Community College's Maine is IT! program; the Aroostook County Business-Education Collaborative; the Maine Teacher of the Year Program; and Portland's Riverton Elementary OWL Curriculum. 

 

Our event concludes with our annual Leadership Luncheon during which we recognize some of Maine's best educators and present the Weston L. Bonney Leadership Award.
