Dear Esteemed Colleagues, Educators, and Advocates,

With immense excitement, I am thrilled to announce the New York State Association for Bilingual Education (NYSABE) 47th Annual Conference, set to take place from February 27 to March 1 at the enchanting Saratoga Hilton in Saratoga Springs, NY! We are eager to welcome you to this beautiful venue and provide an exceptional opportunity for professional growth as we celebrate the vital work being done to support our bilingual and multilingual students.

On behalf of the Board of Directors, Delegate Assembly, and Executive Director, it is my pleasure to invite you to join us for this year’s conference. Our theme, “Reaffirming Policy to Transform Practice and Action in Bilingual Education,” emphasizes NYSABE’s unwavering commitment to harnessing the power of effective policy to create meaningful and transformative educational experiences for our students.

This year, our conference will focus on engaging discussions and hands-on sessions aimed at fostering advocacy work through the lens of our students. We will provide a platform for sharing innovative strategies and practices that ensure all multilingual and bilingual learners are equipped with the tools they need to thrive.

NYSABE is dedicated to supporting educators, parents, community members, and educational leaders by offering a diverse array of sessions and resources centered on critical themes such as diversity, equity, belonging, multicultural/multilingual pedagogy, dual language instructional program models, bilingual special education, and supporting immigrant students and families, among many others!

We cannot wait to see you in Saratoga Springs, NY, where we will embark on this exciting journey of professional development and collaboration. Let’s engage in enriching conversations and work together to advance our commitment to bilingual education!

With gratitude,

Dr. Eliezer Hernández
