At our Spring 2026 CAFE Summit, student voice was powerful. “Your voice matters a lot,” says Eric, a senior at Nestucca High School.

This fall, we’re giving the floor once again to those who know schools best: Students!

• Hear directly from culturally diverse student leaders and equity-focused clubs.
• Explore what’s working and what needs to change.
• Gain fresh perspectives to inform your work and create more equitable schools.

Denise Reynolds, an instructional coach who works for the St. Helens School District, says the conference was exactly what she needed. She wasn’t sure what to expect at the start of the day but was encouraged by the insights the students shared. “I hope all educators have a chance to come to see this,” she says. 

This free event is open to students, educators and community partners. Lunch and refreshments will be provided. We can also reimburse your school district for substitute and mileage costs.
