Dear ACTEAZ Members,


Happy Spring! We are all in full swing of our second semester and I hope you are taking part in many of the great professional development opportunities being offered by our State planning teams, our Affiliates and your local Districts.


What has CTE been up to?


  • ACTE National Convention in Charlotte, NC was a tremendous success with those who attended coming home with great ideas and renewed energy for working with students.

  • Mid-Winter Conference in Prescott was just like always – A TREMENDOUS SUCCESS!!!

  • Legislative Day keeps getting better and better each year. We had over 215 teachers,administrators, counselors, and most important of all, students. The students overwhelmed our State’s “finest” with their professionalism, poise, and maturity as they met with Representatives and Senators and spoke before the Education Committee in session.

  • National Policy Seminar was very interesting with the state of the economy, the new administration, and a great deal of hope for renewed confidence in our Nation.

Coming soon will be Region V in April, being held this year in Bellingham, Washington.
