Your head may be in back-to-school mode, but we hope you’ll take a moment to reflect on an amazing summer.
These last few months, we
- Won a key victory for educators, signing into law a requirement that you receive the same fair process in termination proceedings as every other school employee
- Teed up for students, swinging hundreds of golf clubs and raising tens of thousands of dollars for The Children’s Fund, supporting students experiencing poverty or other hardships
- Held our bellies with laughter and our heads high “unioning” at CEA’s 2026 Summer Conference, with guest comedian Devin Siebold
- Got up to speed on Supreme Court decisions affecting our LGBTQ+ students and learned how we can keep supporting them
- Honored some exceptional educators who do just that—stand up for students and others who may be underrepresented or underserved
And that’s just the highlight reel.
Catch all these stories and more in this issue of the CEA Advisor.
