From ATE's President
Advocacy: A Call to Action for Our Profession and Democracy
As my time as President of the Association of Teacher Educators (ATE) comes to a close, I am filled with immense pride and gratitude for the work we’ve accomplished together. Looking ahead to our upcoming conference, I’m excited to reflect on our theme of advocacy—an essential focus for all of us. Whether advocating for ourselves, for others, for the profession, or for ATE, we are taking crucial steps to ensure that education remains a cornerstone of our democratic republic. More than ever, advocacy in education is needed. As we face challenges on multiple fronts, it’s clear that the health of our democracy and the strength of an engaged citizenry depend on the quality of our education system. The work we do as educators impacts not only our classrooms but the future of society itself. By supporting each other, fighting for the resources and policies we need, and ensuring our voices are heard, we ensure that education remains a powerful force for positive change. As we gather in New Orleans, I encourage you to take time to engage with our vibrant community. Support local businesses, explore the rich culture of this remarkable city, and most importantly—make new connections. The collegiality and collaboration we foster here will be what strengthens our advocacy moving forward. The relationships we build and the ideas we share will be our collective power in advocating for the future of education. Our new standing committee structure will be evident in New Orleans, and I want to acknowledge the standing committee chairs: Dr. James Thompson (Diversity), Dr. Pat Swails (Educational Programs and Planning), Dr. Liz Ward (Fiscal Affairs), Dr. Becky Fredrickson (Governance), and Dr. Ashlie Jack (Public Affairs). Thank you for your commitment to Education. Let’s continue to advocate passionately and thoughtfully, knowing that our efforts shape the future of education and society. I look forward to seeing all of you in New Orleans! |
