2025 MicroSociety® Annual Conference
#MicroCon2025
At the 31st Annual MicroSociety Conference, we delved deep into the power of student choice and leadership in building a prosperous, innovative, and ethical society.
We strove to inspire and equip teachers, school leaders, and education advocates to nurture the next generation of changemakers.
Together, took a journey through the future of education, the heart of what inspires us, and the practical tools to make it all happen.
🚀 FUTURISM – Facing the Great Unknown
We explored the possibilities and opportunities that lie ahead for our students out on the horizon. How do we prepare them—and ourselves—for a future we can only imagine? Together, we faced the future with hope, courage, and insight.
❤️🔥 INSPIRATION – Reigniting the Fire
We reignited your passion as educators and turned challenges into opportunities. As technology advances, how do we keep students grounded in their humanity? We explored ways to help them build a world where they belong and can lead meaningful lives.
💡 APPLICATION – Learning by Doing
Finally, we rolled up our sleeves, engaged our hands, minds, and hearts, and experienced what we want our students to experience: real-world learning in action. In MicroSociety, we learn by doing—and then do what we’ve learned.

Great Gatsby Style Hotel

A landmark of elegance for over 100 years, the Seelbach has hosted presidents, celebrities, and literary legends—including F. Scott Fitzgerald, who found inspiration for The Great Gatsby right here. It’s the perfect setting to celebrate literary history and innovation in education.
