ACTEAZ PRESIDENT’S WELCOME

Dear Attendees,
Thank you for attending the Midwinter Leadership Conference. ACTEAZ is pleased and honored to bring this conference to you in cooperation with ACOVA.
We hope the conference will provide you with an opportunity to enhance your leadership skills and to refl ect on the signifi cant progress we have made as a profession. Thanks to you and our other colleagues Arizona CTE is making progress on numerous fronts. The data suggest that CTE works. CTE keeps students in school and sends them on to postsecondary destinations with a purpose. Our partnerships with other educational organizations and with business and industry are steadily improving. We have a state CTE strategic plan that is receiving renewed attention thanks to the leadership of Jeanne Roberts of the Arizona Department of Education. Together, we are making a positive difference.
Thank you for all you do for education, in general, and CTE, in particular.
Sincerely,
Dr. John MulcahyACTEAZ President
