New Educator Weekend Rocks!
CTA's first-ever New Educator Weekend took place in March. Geared toward educators with five years or less in the profession,
the conference was a rousing success, judging by member feedback. Attendees networked, noshed, and picked up tips on
everything from classroom management to teaching with tech. #CTANEW
Essential ESPs
NEA's animated video "Education Support Professionals: Meeting the Needs of the
Whole Student" (youtu.be/ACnG64L6jjs) shows how ESPs make a difference in the
lives of students, as seen through the eyes of middle schooler Sofi.
From custodians and food service workers to paraeducators and bus drivers, ESPs
are critical members of the education workforce and ensure student success from
preschool through college. Seventy-five percent of ESPs live in the communities
where they work.
