Conference Information

Plan now to join IRC at the 55th Annual IRC Conference from March 9-10, 2023 at the Bank of Springfield Center, President Abraham Lincoln Hotel, and the Wyndham Hotel in Springfield, Illinois. IRC will be excited to learn from the below list of featured speakers who will help teachers, specialists, and administrators from every grade-level and content area. And please share the 2023 Preliminary Program with other educators!
NEW CHANGES TO THE CONFERENCE PROGRAM: IRC is excited to share that Donalyn Miller will be joining us and be the Thursday Luncheon keynote speaker at the Wyndham Hotel. Sara Ahmed will now be presenting on Friday and the keynote at the Friday Breakfast. IRC is sad to share that Nikki Grimes is unable to attend the conference.
