What is WEA RA?

It's where members set WEA's direction

WEA is a member-driven, democratically governed organization. Once a year, about 1,000 WEA members selected by peers in their local associations gather for the WEA Representative Assembly, or WEA RA

The annual delegate assembly is WEA's highest policy-making body. The meeting, which has a look and feel similar to a major political convention, provides a forum where WEA members can gather, discuss, debate and vote on the policy decisions that set the state Association's goals, priorities and policies for the coming year.
