Welcome to the 2025-2026 membership year! This year we plan to work at the state and district levels to increase opportunities for member engagement and collaboration, culminating with an in-person conference in Vancouver. Follow us on social media and watch for your monthly e-blast to stay informed and involved. We are excited to work for you and look forward to connecting with WA State Academy members this year.
