The South Carolina Council of Teachers of English (SCCTE) is excited to return to Kiawah Island for the 2025 SCCTE conference for the 2025 SCCTE conference: "Gather Together, Grow Together."  As educators ourselves, we know that it takes collaboration, research, and innovation to support our students and to develop our craft. Our conference theme hopes to bring you inspiration as well as challenge, support as well as advocacy, and instruction as well as discussion.

Our focus on growth is about embracing sustainable change for ourselves, our profession, and our students. The goal is about giving us the space, time, and nurturing needed to help us grow each day. Our SCCTE executive board members have been working diligently to gather outstanding keynote speakers, select your session proposals, and secure exhibitors; visit our conference page above for more details. We look forward to collaborating, learning, and celebrating with you at Kiawah Island West Conference Center on January 31-February 1, 2025!   

**New this year: In partnership with The SCEA's Center for Educator Wellness and Learning (CEWL), we're offering a pre-conference workshop. Enhance your experience by reimagining and ReHUMANizing School.
