This role consists of a 5 - year leadership commitment, consisting of:
1 year as President-Elect
2 years as President
2 years as Past-President
This structure allows for time assisting the President with the leadership of the chapter while serving as President-Elect, taking over primary leadership as President for two years, followed by two years of support in the role of Past-President once primary leadership has been handed over to another educator. It is crucial that individuals pursuing this role are committed to serving the complete term to maintain a functional leadership structure for our state chapter.
