ATPE’s Teach the Vote Week in Review will be back next week. We wish you a safe and relaxing three-day weekend filled with Friday night lights, time with family and friends, and good sleep. It’s well deserved!
If you’re in the Central Texas area, don’t forget that educators can attend next week’s Texas Tribune Festival for only $75. TribFest will take place Sept. 5–7 in downtown Austin.
