e are experiencing technical difficulties with our member portal (MyAWSP accounts, AWSL portal). Anyone trying to log in to the AWSP Learning Lab will be unable to do so, and event registrations and purchases are also down right now. We are working with our vendors to fix this as fast as possible, but we do not have a timeline for resolution yet. What does this mean for you?

At AWSP, we believe every system is perfectly designed to get the results it’s getting. If we want to see positive student behavior, we have to design systems that make belonging the default setting. Positive Behavior Supports (PBS) aren’t just about setting expectations or acknowledging good choices; they are about creating environments where every student feels seen, valued, and capable of success. From an AWSP Framework perspective, that is the heart of effective school leadership, and it is where culture, systems, and learning intersect.

At AWSP, our mission has always been simple and unwavering: we exist to support every school leader (principals and assistant principals) and the principalship in the education of each and every student. That means supporting our members, at every level, in every school across Washington. Today, we’re sharing an update that strengthens that commitment and aligns Washington’s PK–12 leadership voice with a new, unified national partner.

AWSP continually seeks opportunities to enhance support of Washington’s principals and assistant principals. AWSP is thrilled to partner with BTS Spark to provide proactive support for individual school leaders like you! Through this partnership, AWSP members can access confidential, personalized and affordable leadership coaching at a discounted rate ($120 off a full coaching package).
