President's address
AFT launched its National Convention with the Opening General Session July 27th. Delegates were treated to a performance by the Detroit School Choir and the Mayor of Detroit, David Bing, greeted delegates and welcomed them to the city. AFT Executive Vice President Francine Lawrence addressed delegates, as did Susan Hopgood, president , Education International, and Peter Waldorf, general secretary, Public Service International.
Lorretta Johnson, AFT Secretary-Treasurer, was a featured speaker at the Opening Session. Dr. Johnson and Francine Lawrence presided over the presentation of the AFT Everyday Hero Awards. Among the Heroes acknowledged for outstanding service was Mike Morris, a member of the Baltimore County Federation of Public Employees, an AFT-Maryland affiliate.
Following the Opening General Session, Conference selected delegates attended committee meetings devoted to 2012 elections, constitutional amendments, and divisional meetings. A Retirees Leadership Conference also was convened on the Convention’s first day.
The evening concluded with the Kamalikulture Fashion Show.
No one at AFT imagined that our displaced Gulf Coast members would find the resources to practice the almost-forgotten art of the "thank-you" note. But since the AFT Disaster Relief Fund began to send out $500 grants, thank-you notes have poured in to AFT secretary-treasurer Nat LaCour's office from AFT evacuees.
The AFT marked the fourth anniversary of the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act in January with the launch of a new Web site that features information and discussion on this major education law. |
