The 2026 CountyPalooza is sure to brighten up this dreary January—and give you the tools, insight, and inspiration you need to make a real impact this year.
At a time when educators’ voices matter more than ever, CountyPalooza offers a clear look at CEA’s 2026 legislative agenda, updates on key national and statewide initiatives, and the release of important dates for upcoming events and actions. You’ll also hear exciting announcements you won’t find anywhere else.
Join us on January 27 from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. for this dynamic forum, featuring remarks from CEA leadership and a special guest, Maryland Education Association President Paul Lemle. President Lemle will share what it truly means to be an action-ready local—and how engaged, organized members can drive wins for educators and students alike.
The evening will also include county-specific breakout sessions focused on upcoming elections, local priorities, and planning opportunities, giving you a chance to connect with colleagues and help shape the work ahead in your region.
