GAE-SP


The GAE-SP (Georgia Association of Educators Student Program) is a program sponsored by the Georgia Association of Educators and the National Educators Association. GAE’s student program is designed to provide college students with the opportunity to make their voice heard locally, statewide and nationally through activities that affect their chosen profession – teaching. GAE’s student program works to help students make the smooth transition from the campus to the classroom by exploring the critical non-instructional aspects of the profession.
