Finally. A place built just for 6th grade teachers.
– Launching July 2026 –
Sixth grade is a unique place, a place right in the middle. Your students are the oldest in elementary or the youngest in middle school—never quite fitting in either place.
They’re growing up fast, but still need guidance. And you’re the one figuring out how to meet them there, often without support that truly understands the reality of this grade.
Sixth Grade Summit is here to change that.
There’s a lot more to sixth grade than most people think, especially when you’re still figuring it out.
You’re managing a lot:
- behavior
- expectations
- communication with parents
- administration
- and everything in between
Some days feel like progress… Other days feel like you’re just keeping things moving while you figure it out.
If you’re new to sixth grade, that learning curve can feel steep—like you’re driving down the Interstate with no brakes, wonky steering, the kids are having a food fight in the back seat, and it’s pouring down rain! Even if you’ve been teaching other grades for a while, sixth grade requires something different. It’s not just curriculum. It’s
- navigating constantly shifting demands
- meeting a wide range of student needs
- figuring out what actually works in your classroom
Most support out there is too broad or too generic to really help, so you piece it together, adjust, and keep driving while peering through the foggy windshield.
It’s hard to find a space that truly understands what sixth grade looks like, giving you the kind of support that makes everything feel more manageable.
That’s exactly what Sixth Grade Summit was built for.
Sixth Grade Summit is built entirely for 6th grade teachers.
No general advice, no trying to “make it work” for your situation.
Just real support for this grade, from someone who has lived it.
Inside, you’ll find a place to grow your skills, simplify your systems, and feel more confident in the classroom—without feeling like teaching has to take over your entire life.
Think of Sixth Grade Summit as your basecamp. It's a place to come back to, regroup, build community, and find the tools to conquer your next ascent.
Inside Sixth Grade Summit, you’ll find a variety of resources designed just for you!

About Brittany
I spent 17 years teaching 6th grade, both in elementary and middle school settings, and I’ve always had a deep love for this grade and the teachers who choose it. It’s a role that asks a lot, and I believe the people who step into it deserve real, meaningful support.
That’s why I created Sixth Grade Summit, a place built just for sixth grade and the teachers who care deeply about doing it well.
Inside, you’ll feel supported, understood, and more confident in what you’re doing.
This isn’t a generic solution or another one-size-fits-all program. It’s a real community, a real system, and a place that feels like home.
