We had just under 1000 attendees at our 2023 State Conference! This is a great turnout post-COVID. I hope you all learned a lot and returned with useful information. Some post-conference things to remember:
- Send a thank you to your administrators for allowing you to attend #CAHEPRD23 - The 2023 State Conference. Share with them the sessions you attended and how useful it is for you. Include pictures if you like to show some activities.
- Submit your proposal now for #CAHPERD24 and #NAPEC52
- Proposal Submission for the 2024 State Conference will close on June 15.
It was great to see so many CAHPERD members attending the SHAPE America Conference. Congratulations to the following CAHPERD members:
- Samantha "Sammi" Stewart of Newbury Park High School in Newbury Park, CA., for receiving the SHAPE America Western District and SHAPE America National Adapted Physical Education Teacher of the Year.
- Robert Schmidlein of Monroe High School in North Hills, CA., for receiving the SHAPE America Western District High School Teacher of the Year.
- William "Will" Potter of Serendipity School in Belmont, CA., and Past-President of CAHPERD for being elected to the Board of Directors of SHAPE America
Lastly, I want to thank all who worked so hard on the State Conference. All the volunteers, planners, managers, and directors of conference events helped to make the conference possible. I personally believe the Thursday Tailgate Social was the best social we have had! It was a lot of fun to see everyone playing games, socializing, and dancing. Everyone be sure to send @djtrevwilliams on Instagram a thank you for the music.
Thank you to all who have joined or renewed your membership with CAHPERD. You are the foundation of our organization!
