As we usher in February, we are thrilled to announce the launch of our Member Engagement Month – a month-long campaign dedicated to fostering connection, amplifying your voices, and providing you with exciting opportunities to shape the future of education for principals and assistant principals across the state.

At AWSP, we believe that an engaged and active membership is the heartbeat of our professional association. It is your passion, dedication, and insights that drive positive change in the educational landscape. That's why we're rolling out a series of initiatives, blog posts, and weekly emails throughout the month to help you make the most of your membership.

One way to get involved is with our Grade Level Leadership Committees (GLLC). You can view current openings, and later this week, you'll get an email inviting you to apply if you're in a grade-level and ESD region with open positions. Our GLLC members consistently say their involvement is one of the highlights of their professional careers. Don't take our word for it, hear what they say about their experience engaging with AWSP.


What to Expect

Each week, you'll receive an email highlighting:

1. Winter Forum Advocacy Update

Stay informed about the latest developments in education policy and advocacy. Register now for the Winter Forum, February 13, 4-5pm. You'll hear important updates from our Director of Advocacy and Government Relations, Roz Thompson, on crucial issues affecting school leaders.

2. Update Your Profile and Tap a Future Leader on the Shoulder

Do we have all your important information on record, and is it up-to-date? Cell phone, address, ethnicity, etc. Log in to your profile to check or update your records. Also, what a perfect time to tell someone else that you see them as an effective future leader. 

3. Professional Learning Updates, Summer Conference, and Clock Hours Certification Update

Explore upcoming learning opportunities, mark your calendar for essential events, and ensure your professional certifications are up-to-date. Our commitment to your continuous growth is unwavering.

4. Get Involved in Grade Level Leadership Committees and Nominate for Principal/Assistant Principal of the Year

Take an active role in shaping education by participating in grade-level committees. Nominate outstanding colleagues for Principal and Assistant Principal of the Year awards – recognizing excellence and innovation in leadership.

Your involvement is more than a checkbox on your membership journey. It's about actively contributing to the educational community, sharing your expertise, and helping shape the future. When you engage, you empower yourself and others, and collectively, we elevate the standard of education.

By participating in Member Engagement Month, you not only enhance your professional development but also play a pivotal role in influencing the trajectory of education. Your voice matters, and AWSP is the platform that amplifies it.

Get ready for an exciting month filled with opportunities to connect, learn, and make a meaningful impact. Keep an eye on your inbox for our weekly emails, each focusing on a specific theme aimed at enriching your membership experience.

Let's make this month a celebration of collaboration, growth, and advocacy. Together, we can build a brighter future for education.
