As ACSA prepares for the 2016 Leadership Summit in San Diego, we took a moment to talk to some of our members about why ACSA works for them. “We serve all California students by supporting, developing, and advocating for California’s educational leaders.” –Dr. Wesley Smith, ACSA Executive Director ACSA believes every student deserves equal opportunities to succeed. On every school day throughout California, dedicated educators and courageous students overcome tremendous challenges to reach their goals. Their success is our success; their powerful stories are our inspiration.
