Become a ‘Public School Strong’ Advocate
For many of us, August represents new beginnings for our national, state, and local associations. It’s an opportunity to start fresh with new plans, programs, and priorities.
And we did indeed make some big plans at the inspiring 2024 NEA-Retired Annual Meeting, which took place in Philadelphia, from June 29 – July 1. Some 300 members and delegates of NEA-Retired came together to discuss our 2024 – 2025 strategic goals, shared exciting program developments, and explored new opportunities for retirees to become engaged in their local community schools.
We also unveiled the much-awaited makeover of the NEA-Retired website. Delegates to the annual meeting were invited to share their thoughts via email once they returned home. Yes, there are still a few tweaks to be made, but the overwhelming opinion is that we are on the right track. I encourage you to check it out for yourself at nea.org/retired.
Participants also got a sneak preview of the new NEA-Retired logo and refreshed membership materials. Work is also being completed on a membership recruitment PowerPoint, which states will be able to personalize to fit their individual needs.
I want to close by encouraging each of you to commit to joining the NEA Public School Strong campaign—to advocate for honest, equitable, fully-funded public schools at your local school board meetings. To get started, sign up for a Public Schools Strong virtual orientation.
