Event overview

Toddle’s first Meetup for Christian school leaders in Houston brings together school leaders from Christian schools across the region for a day of thoughtful conversation, practical learning, and meaningful connection. Hosted at the Houston Botanic Garden on November 12, 2026, the gathering is grounded in a shared conviction: Christian schools can pursue academic excellence, meaningful innovation, and the wise use of AI while remaining deeply rooted in the biblical worldview and mission that define them.

Through a keynote, leadership panel, and interactive sessions exploring school leadership, emerging technology, student agency, and authentic assessment, we’ll consider what it means to lead and teach with both innovation and discernment. Together, we’ll explore how Christian schools can prepare students for an increasingly AI-shaped world while keeping Christ-centered formation, purposeful learning, and the development of the whole child at the heart of the educational experience.

With intentional opportunities to pause, reflect, and connect, the day is designed to foster peer learning, encouragement, and honest conversation among Christian school leaders and educators. The goal is not simply to ask what’s next for education, but to consider how we discern what’s worth pursuing — and how we ensure innovation serves the mission rather than reshapes it.
