Our very own Paula Johnson is representing Marshalltown at the 2026 NEA-Retired Conference in Phoenix, Arizona! ☀️🌵

Paula is presenting on how retired educators can use AI as a powerful advocacy tool to support public education and amplify their voices. Even in retirement, our educators continue to lead, innovate, and fight for students and schools.

NEA-Retired is dedicated to promoting secure retirement with dignity, advancing equitable and quality public education, and advocating for human, civil, and economic rights for all. Their vision is to be the preeminent voice for retired members while strengthening NEA — and Paula is helping move that vision forward.

We’re proud to see Marshalltown educators making an impact on a national stage! 💙🍎
