Crowne Plaza Albany - the Desmond Hotel, Albany NY 

With Social Studies playing a significant role in the development of an educated citizenry, we are at the forefront of maintaining a robust democracy. As Social Studies Educators, learning from and with each other can lead to a transformative revolution in teaching and learning. 

Join us in starting a Revolution in Albany this March!

Social Studies Matters 

As the New York State Education Department develops more detailed recommendations for New York's Graduation Requirements, we remain committed to advocating for Social Studies education, PK-12.  Students in New York deserve four units of credit in high school Social Studies in order to be prepared for the challenges of the 21st century world.  Social Studies educators in New York deserve a seat at the table as these decisions are being made. 

Read our recent email to Chancellor Young, Commissioner Rosa,  Deputy Commissioners Matteson, Johnson-Dingle and Harmon and all members of the Board of Regents advocating for a commitment to the 4 units of credit and expressing our desire to work with NYSED to provide clarity and support for Social Studies educators.
