Great Work and Advocacy

Yesterday was day 2 of the May IEA Board of Directors meeting. A lot of great work happens at each BODs meeting: New business discussions, several reports (Secretary/Treasurer, Vice-President, Legislative, Aspiring Educators, Education Support Professional, Higher Education, NEA Directors, President Support Team, Retired, SURS, and TRS) are presented along with many other committee and subcommittee re committee reports.

Elections for IPACE and IEA Executive Committee

I am extremely proud to announce that Gina Lozano and myself have been re-elected to the IEA Executive Committee. I am so proud to be in an organization who values education support professionals and their contributions to the betterment of public education and our members.

Un oh…technical difficulties.

We started with a few hiccups with technology, but ended with a great meeting full of collaboration and awesome ideas shared by many! Each rESPect team (Legislative, Model Contract Language, Communications, and Organizing and Leadership Development), worked in breakout rooms to accomplish the goals of their team. It is the members and IEA staff that come together and share their voice and talents that will build this into the powerful campaign needed to bring the changes that will benefit the lives of education support professionals in Illinois.

You’re invited to attend our next meeting on February 8th
