Arkansas Education Association Arkansas' professional organization for public school educators. OUR CORE VALUES
*EQUAL OPPORTUNITY
We believe public education is the gateway to opportunity.

OUR VISION
To Provide a Great Public School for Every Student

OUR MISSION
To advocate for education professionals and to unite our members and the state to fulfill the promise of public education to prepare every student to succeed in a diverse and interdependent world. All students have the human and civil right to a quality public education that develops their potential, independence and character.

*A JUST SOCIETY
We believe public education is vital to building respect for the worth, dignity and equality of every individual in our diverse society.

*DEMOCRACY
We believe public education is the cornerstone of our republic. Public education provides individuals with the skills to be involved, informed and engaged in our representative democracy.

*PROFESSIONALISM
We believe that the expertise and judgment of education professionals are critical to student success. We maintain the highest professional standards and we expect the status, compensation and respect due all professionals.

*PARTNERSHIP
We believe partnerships with parents, families, communities and other stakeholders are essential to quality public education and student success.

*COLLECTIVE ACTION
We believe individuals are strengthened when they work together for the common good. As education professionals, we improve both our professional status and the quality of public education when we unite and advocate collectively. ONLINE COMMUNITY STANDARDS

We all want every student to thrive, and that starts with trusting the people who’ve dedicated their careers to teaching. Educators have the degrees, training, and years of classroom experience to decide what students learn.

We stand in support of our siblings in the Oregon Education Association as they mourn the losses experienced yesterday in Bend and once again call for change.

We are heartbroken for the families, students and staff at Silver Rail Elementary and across the beautiful city of Bend. A dark day for all Oregonians. But in moments like these, we have each other.

Our voice is our power! When educators promote the vote, we help to elect pro-public education candidates who support fully funded schools, better working conditions, and safe, healthy communities.

We're counting on you to help promote the vote! Join our virtual rally tomorrow, Wednesday, October 14, to hear from three NEA members running for Congress to create real change!

Educators are among the most trusted members of our communities. Find out how NEA members across the country are promoting the vote by having conversations with their friends and neighbors, and how it all adds up to big change.
