Thank you to our outgoing board members for their service!

Fun times!!

It is always a delight to be in community with the @aefpweb.bsky.social community! This conference was extra special with the chance to check out some Chicago museums with my fam. If we didn’t get a chance to talk or connect please reach out! Would love to hear folks’ feedback on how AEFP26 went.

Totally agree - great conference! I will do my best not to mess it up, no pressure at all :) I simply request that nothing unexpected happen in the meantime. That’s not too much to ask, right?

Great conference with great people. @dbassok.bsky.social killed it, obviously. Can’t wait to see even bigger and better next year! (No pressure, @jscottclayton.bsky.social)

We're honored to work with John on EdWorkingPapers.
