About this conference
Join us December 4â6, 2026, in Chicago, IL, as we celebrate social studies excellence at the 106th NCSS Annual Conference where you will be energized and inspired by incredible educators, meaningful conversations, and practical ideas you can immediately use in your classroom. More than a theme, Social Studies 365 is a reminder of why your work matters every single day - affirming that social studies education is essential year-round, shaping informed citizens, strengthening democracy, and helping students connect to the world around them. Come be lifted up, recharged, and reminded that what you do truly matters. We cannot wait to learn from you, celebrate your impact, and see how you will bring Social Studies 365 to life every day of the year.
