NSLA President 2023-2024

Hello!

First and foremost, I would like to say a heartfelt thank you to our continuing members and a welcome to those of you who are new to the Nebraska State Literacy Association. We know that as we find our new normal in a changed world, many things have transformed, including NSLA. So, as we find our way forward together, we are excited to share our newly finalized Strategic Plan along with our updated Mission, Vision, and Goals. We appreciate the feedback received from members and are excited to work with many of you as we now put the hard work into our foundational goals to build them into the strong pillars that will support our organization for the years to come.

We hope that you will find value in the research-focused professional learning that will be available throughout the next year and that you will take advantage of the opportunities to participate in the book studies, online events, and next year’s in-person conference to learn, grow, and connect alongside fellow educators.

We also encourage you to sign up for opportunities to participate in the leadership of NSLA through our many committees and opportunities to serve as a member of the board. We would love to have you join us in our work of promoting and improving literacy for all here in Nebraska.

Cordially,
Tricia Parker
NSLA President 2023-2024
