The Wake Forest Department of Education is partnering with the Wake Forest Center for Literacy Education and Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Schools to bring you edCamp336 on Saturday, February 27, 2027, from 8:30 am to 12:00 pm at Wake Forest University. 


Overview

Wake Forest University and Winston-Salem Forsyth County Schools proudly present edCamp336 on February 27, 2027. edCamp336 is a free, participant-driven “unconference” for educators, focusing on organic, conversation-based professional development. It is “by teachers, for teachers,” where attendees collaboratively create the agenda on the day of the event to share expertise, network, and discuss relevant, peer-led topics.

Registration is free and open to all K-12 educators and university students from across the region. Breakfast will be provided, and participants will be allowed to attend multiple discussion groups. All participants will receive a certificate to take back to their districts or schools to submit for credit.

**New for 2027, the school with the highest percentage of their staff represented at the conference will earn a free catered lunch, courtesy of the Wake Forest University Department of Education and the Center for Literacy Education.**
