MABE 2027 Annual Conference & Advocacy Roundtable: Living, Learning, and Prospering in Two Languages: Invest in Bilingual Education

The MABE 2027 Annual Conference & Advocacy Roundtable, themed 'Living, Learning, and Prospering in Two Languages: Invest in Bilingual Education,' will be held on Saturday, March 20, 2027, at the Margarita Muñiz Academy in Boston, Massachusetts. This event will also commemorate the 40th Anniversary of the Amigos School in Cambridge, MA, and 15 years of Dual Language Bilingual Education (DLBE) at the Margarita Muñiz Academy. MABE's conference provides a vital opportunity for professionals in Dual Language Bilingual Education to network and collaborate, enhance professional development, share instructional methods that foster bilingualism and multiculturalism, disseminate current research, and discover new strategies for engaging with families and communities. It serves as a platform for school and district leaders, classroom teachers, and staff involved in DLBE programs to connect with peers, participate in professional development focused on DLBE instruction, and learn effective advocacy strategies for DLBE. The Pre-Conference Advocacy Roundtable, a no-cost virtual event, is specifically designed for invited guests and stakeholders including school and district leaders, state education agencies, legislators, higher education institutions, and community organizations from the region.
