Sparks is a gathering of educators who have less than five years of experience in our public schools. We figure you may not know much about the VEA, either, and we’d like to show you a fun weekend and bring you up to speed on what the Association does and how you can play a more active role in it.
What we’re after is helping you make connections with peers from around Virginia while having a blast, too. And did we mention it’s FREE?
When: February 28 – March 1, 2020
Where: Virginia Crossings Resort, Glen Allen, VA
At Sparks, educators new to the field make discoveries about their peers and their Union while learning about issues relevant to them. The weekend is marked by meaningful professional discussions, new friendships, and a thorough introduction to the VEA and how it’s essential to a successful career in education. On top of all that, Sparks is also both fun and free!
Teacher shortages are a serious issue across the country. Here in Virginia, there are currently over 1,000 unfilled teaching positions.
