General Session/Keynote- Laughter in the Lesson
Friday May 1, 2026 8:15am - 9:30am CDT
Laughter in the Lesson

There is science behind laughter, and this veteran stand up comedian has mastered it. Now, imagine being able to bottle that energy, positivity and feel-good vibe that you get from a comedy show, and channel it into your classroom, workplace or everyday life. It’s easier than you think. Devin delivers a comedy-filled message that puts the power of the punchline into the hands of the staff in a way that benefits the entire school. Better mental health, lower turnover rate, improved classroom participation and a massive drop in disciplinary issues. All of these have proven real-world demonstrations that Devin experienced in his classroom, and can pass on to you!
