Hi there,
It’s Giovanna, the editor-in-chief of NEA Today magazine.
I’m reminded each day by my children that I have no “rizz” and I “yap” too much. The “language” they speak is one, unfortunately, I’ve learned so I can understand what they’re saying. De-coding kids' ever-changing slang is one of the features you will find in our latest issue of NEA Today.
While I hope that story makes you smile, the upcoming issue, which should be in your mailboxes soon, is full of critical information to help you deal with workplace issues, behavior concerns, and the upcoming election, which is less than 20 days away.
In our cover story, reporter Amanda Litvinov talks to educators about how recent elections have impacted their schools—from hiring more school counselors and social workers to providing universal meals and student loan forgiveness.
Other articles investigate the impact of vaping on student behavior, the political power of education support professionals, and the push for increased pay. | |
As Amanda writes in our cover story, “Everything we want for public schools starts with electing the right leaders.”
So, let’s get out to vote—for our students, for our public schools, for a better future!
In solidarity,
Giovanna Bechard
