HILDA KENDRICK-APPIAH
My name is Hilda Kendrick-Appiah and I am seeking re-election as NEA Director. I want to continue to work for all ISTA members at the national level. I want to continue to promote Public Education in a positive manner using a strong voice. Public Education is the lifeline of educating our students. I have worked hard to communicate to Senators and Representatives in Washington, D.C. that funding must continue to help maintain public education.
My promise to you, if re-elected, to the NEA Board, I will continue to fight for educators. I will work hard for educational concerns of funding for public education, testing, educator evaluations, student achievement, student attitudes and behaviors, and healthcare issues for students and educators. I will continue to be an advocate for our students, for public education and for you, ISTA members, at the state and national level.
Together we can educate people about the respect all who work in public education deserve!!!
I’m Hilda Kendrick-Appiah, candidate for NEA Director. Please Vote Hilda Kendrick-Appiah for NEA Director for Indiana!!!!
