The 2025 All-School Summit will be hosted at the Douglas County School District’s Legacy Campus this Sunday through Tuesday, July 27-29.
Reminder to all attendees, please bring your laptop to each of the meetings with you, as there will be interactive portions and opportunities to fill out forms on site.
Highlights of the All-School Summit agenda include the CHSAA Kickoff – a presentation around the importance of educationally based activities – and a series of breakouts. The first two breakout sessions will include topics such as Arbiter 101 & 201, Transfer Waivers, Special Olympics, Start-of-the-Year Checklists, and the Importance of your PA Announcer, while the third and fourth breakout topics will include topics such as “If Winning is the First Goal, What is the Second Goal”, CLOC update, Officials Accountability and How to Create Change. The two-day event will also include updates from corporate partners, a panel of school leaders talking about inclusive excellence and a reception at Sporty Pickle.
The two-day Activities Directors Meeting will not only feature roundtable discussions, breakouts and panel discussions, but there will be a workshop around understanding CHSAA bylaws and Colorado Revised Statutues, a mini-session for new activities directors and a student panel, where activities directors will get to hear directly from students as they share their perspectives on how student voice influences and shapes campus climate. Throughout the two days, there will also be reflection questions, an opportunity for a Q&A session around building inclusive programs with increased student engagement, and more.
On Sunday, new ADs are encouraged to join the CHSAA staff for a New Athletic Directors Meeting, which will be geared specifically for getting them up-to-speed before the start of the year. Highlights of that session will include a First 30 Days Checklist of sorts, information on transfers and waivers from CHSAA Commissioner Mike Krueger, a resources overview to ensure they’re connected throughout the year and an opportunity for questions and discussion.
There will be a number of speakers during the Sports Medicine Symposium on Monday speaking on topics such as Early Sport Specialization, Preventing Overuse Injuries, Protein Synthesis, Concussions, Best Practices and more.
In conjunction with the summit, the CHSAA State Representatives will also come together for their first meeting of the new school year. The State Reps agenda features breakouts led by former CHSAA State Rep and current CHSAA intern, Brakelle Westphal, in addition to collaboration time, a student leader panel, a meeting with Make-A-Wish, an Activity Director Student Panel and meetings with various members of the CHSAA staff.
Finally, on Tuesday, the All-School Summit will end with the third-annual Foundation Golf Tournament. Registration is now closed, but you can still make a donation to the Foundation. All proceeds go directly to supporting opportunities that enhance experiences for Colorado students.
