The 35th Annual Summer Economic Institute for Teachers is a unique opportunity for high school and community college educators to come to Stanford for a week to learn from leading world economists, share resources, and engage in thought-provoking discussions. Educators will leave feeling honored as professionals, intellectually refreshed, and armed with new ideas for their classrooms. 

The Institute will feature major presentations by distinguished scholars on a wide number of issues including financial literacy, fraud, the economics of networking, ESG, and more. There will also be time for teachers to share resources, discuss teaching challenges, take part in a discussion of the book Streets of Gold: America's Untold Story of Immigrant Success by Ran Abramitzky and Leah Boustan, and discuss presentations from the March SIEPR Economic Summit that featured Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen.
