Dear Region 3 Leaders,
As I step into my second year as your Region 3 President, I am filled with gratitude and excitement for the opportunities ahead. It is truly an honor to serve such a passionate and dedicated group of professionals committed to making a difference in our communities.
We have an exciting year planned, beginning with two key events that I encourage you to mark on your calendars. First, save the date for our 1-day Women’s Leadership Network Conference on November 2nd. This event is a fantastic opportunity to connect, inspire, and empower one another. More details on registration will be coming soon, so stay tuned!
Additionally, I invite you to attend our Admin Monday Fun-Day Mixer on September 23rd from 5-7pm. This will be a great chance to unwind, network, and build relationships. There will be games, trivia and prizes. Please feel free to bring a non-member colleague along—they’re more than welcome!
I also want to remind you to follow us on our social media platforms for regular updates and member features. You can find us @ACSAregion3 on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn and X.
Together, let’s continue to inspire, lead, and make a lasting impact in the lives of our students and communities. I look forward to another year of growth, collaboration, and success with each of you.
In partnership,
Shana Henry, Ed.D.
President, ACSA Region 3

RELC members have been reaching out to our Federal Senators and Congress as a whole to have them co-sponsor legislation that will repeal the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) and the Government Pension Offset (GPO) that affects your social security and pension. We also work closely with the ACSA advocates to ensure our voices are being heard.
