Nationals will take place in Portland Oregon June 20th-23rd. Educators Rising is a local, state, and national group promoting and guiding our next generation of teachers. These students compete in different areas in which teachers do things on a daily basis: creating bulletin boards, lessons, activities, and writing/telling stories. This group gives students a place to network with other people who also want to be teachers and give them a chance to step foot in the classroom to get them experience before ever having their own classroom.
