What is a local unit officer?
Local unit officers ensure that ATPE has a presence at the school district level by:
- Coordinating a local membership campaign to recruit new members and retain prior-year members.
- Recruiting and recognizing volunteers.
- Conducting local unit elections.
- Ensuring the local unit is represented at the ATPE House of Delegates meeting.
- Advocating for public education at the district and state level.
- Participating in community service activities, such as fun runs and district events.
What is a region officer?
ATPE’s 20 regions correspond to the boundaries of the 20 Texas Education Agency regions. Each ATPE member is a member of the region in which he or she is employed. Every ATPE region has an elected officer corps that:
- Supports the local units within the region.
- Assists in the establishment of new local units.
- Relays information between the state office and the local units.
- Promotes the ATPE Summit among local units.
What is a state officer?
The ATPE House of Delegates elects four state officers annually: president, vice president, secretary and treasurer. Along with the immediate past state president, these working educators form ATPE’s Executive Committee. If you are an ATPE volunteer leader, visit Leader Central to learn more.
