The annual joint conference of the Massachusetts Association of School Committees (MASC) and the Massachusetts Association of School Superintendents (M.A.S.S.) runs for three days at the DoubleTree by Hilton Boston North Shore in Danvers, a new venue for 2026. This year's theme is "Navigating Complex Times: Centering on Students", with keynote speakers, sessions on K-12 governance and leadership, and a Delegate Assembly on Friday at 3 PM. Attendees are school committee members, superintendents, assistant superintendents, business managers and other education leaders; the organizer says the 2025 conference drew more than 1,000 people. The exhibit hall, where education vendors and service providers have booths, is open Wednesday 3 to 6:30 PM (with an exhibitor reception from 5 PM) and Thursday 7 AM to 2:30 PM. Exhibit booths were $1,550 and all exhibitor and sponsorship opportunities for 2026 are sold out. Conference registration is $675, with meal events ticketed separately.
