Our "pearl anniversary" Legislative Forum was packed with devoted educators, community members, and legislators ready to work together on solutions that benefit students, teachers, families, and communities!
The group celebrated success stories, presented awards to educators and community members in our member districts, and then spent most of the evening discussing the challenges facing our schools. The discussion focused on four topics:
- Equitable and sustainable school funding
- A qualified special education workforce
- Mental health support
- Career & Technical Education (CTE) opportunities
Our Executive Director, Nicole Woodward, shared her highlights from the event in a short video.
