Strengthening our schools means strengthening everyone who works within a school system, including ESPs. The second half of CTA’s 2023 ESP Leadership Academy took place in Burlingame at the end of April (the first half was in March in LA). Academy participants learned skills to help them be effective leaders in their chapters and are now better prepared to help their local organization deal with current educational and other issues. Congrats!
