AATSP ANNUAL CONFERENCE RETRUNS NEXT SUMMER
The AATSP’s annual conference will return next summer in downtown Atlanta, Georgia! The 103rd annual conference will take place at the Atlanta Marriott Marquis from July 8-11, 2021. During this 3 1/2-day event language educators will have the opportunity to attend discussions, workshops, sessions, exhibits, and much more! The official Call For Proposals will open in late September! The motto for next year’s conference is Submit now, Decide later! You pay nothing to submit a proposal and hope that teachers of all levels will opt to share your expertise and experiences.
