LEADERSHIP MEETING (OPTIONAL, NO COST)

The National Paraeducator Leadership Networking Session will be held Thursday, February 20th, virtually. This session is open to “State/National Paraeducator Leaders”, that is, people who are engaged in activities to promote paraeducator leadership at a variety of levels within their respective states or on a national level. For example, state staff; state or regional training and TA staff; higher education personnel; persons promoting leadership through involvement in various state activities, labor organizations, committees, advisory groups; etc. All interested parties may attend. 
We will begin our session with a quick review of the state of national issues and advances in the field of paraeducation. After the national review participants will discuss the following:

  • What’s working: What do you love about your job?; What is going well in your school? What is going well for the student(s) you support?
  • What’s not working: What challenges are you facing?; What barriers exist?
  • Potential solutions: What resources do you need to address the challenges
  • What research do you think is critical to address?
  • Your role: What’s your role?; How can you become an advocate?

This session will give us a chance to meet others in similar roles at the beginning of the conference. The Leadership meeting is available as an optional add on to the conference or on its own at NO Cost. Registration fees only apply to the full conference.
