OCCS Annual Convocation

Each year, the OCCS Annual Convocation brings educators, administrators, and school leaders across Ohio together for a powerful day of professional learning, collaboration, and inspiration. Tailored specifically for OCCS-sponsored schools, this one-day event equips attendees with relevant training and timely insights to help drive school improvement and student success.

Over the years, we have welcomed some of the most influential voices in education, including Ruby Payne, Michael Bonner, Ron Clark, Geoffrey Canada, Tom Vanderark, and Howard Fuller, whose messages have left a lasting impact.

Keynotes and sessions focus on high-priority topics such as special education, leadership development, academic recovery, mental health, AI in education, and data-driven practices.

This year's theme, "Ignite the Future: Empower. Inspire. Transform," calls on us to think boldly, act courageously, and reimagine what's possible for our schools and students.

Join us as we spark ideas, build connections, and move forward.
