Letter from the President
Dr. Chad Stone
It is a GREAT DAY to be a school leader. As the President of GASSP, I want to thank you for all you do for our students in the state of Georgia. Our AP conference in March was a huge success. Thank you to all that made this great learning opportunity happen for our leaders. As you read this newsletter, most of us will be or soon will be enjoying Spring Break and Easter Break. Please take time to thank the people who have made a difference in your life and made you Better Today Than Yesterday. Enjoy a little break before the mad rush toward graduation starts and Happy Easter to everyone.
To be a great leader, we have to value our time. Time is our most valuable possession. We need to use it everyday to build positive relationships with our family, friends, and school staff. Each person is given 24 hours every day to make our world a better place. Use your time wisely! Do things each day that will make others around you Better Today Than Yesterday.
Go ahead and mark your calendar for November 2023 to join us for an incredible fall conference in Savannah. It will be a wonderful opportunity to come together with fellow leaders as we all learn and grow professionally. We are in the learning business, so we need to model ways to continue to learn and grow daily. In addition to planning for our fall conference, I hope to see everyone at the Summer GAEL conference. Summer GAEL will be at the beach! Plan to attend the conference this July. During the conference we will get to learn, network, and have a little down time before we start the 2023-2024 school year. Also Summer GAEL is when our new leadership is sworn into office. I am so excited to be able to pass the leadership torch over this summer to Dr. Elizabeth Bennett as our new President. Dr. Bennett will definitely make our great organization Better Today Than Yesterday!
The goal of any organization is improvement, and membership is the key to success for our organization. Now is the time to make plans to send in your institutional membership dues for the 2023-2024 school year. Our executive board has voted to make the dues easy and simple for all schools. For a bargain price of $350.00 your school will be a member of GASSP. This price includes all leadership roles in your school. Please join today and High School principals please join for your middle schools.
Please do not hesitate to contact me or your district representative with any question, concern, or suggestion you may have. We are here to serve you as you lead the middle or high school in your community.
Being a member of GASSP makes us all Better Today Than Yesterday!
