After a Full Day of Work, Time to Relax

After a full day of legislative briefings, NEA-PAC Council meeting, meeting with members of Congress and their staff, and topping it off with a two-hour NEA Midwest Regional meeting, it is out for dinner with friends.

A long-standing tradition for Team ISEA-NEA Directors is to enjoy a meal in the evening with NEA Directors from Indiana. This tradition has stretched over the years as new NEA Directors transition in and retiring directors leave the NEA Board of Directors. Retiring from our postions this year are myself (third in from left) and Rick Wright (right/end). The time we take to build these relationships in invaluable as we share initiatives from our states as well as tell of successess that take place in our educational workplace.

Good luck, Rick and thanks Team ISTA for your continued friendships over the years!
