Greetings,

I hope this message finds you well.

As President Elect of RGV-TABE, I am excited to personally invite you to the 28th Annual RGV-TABE Conference, scheduled for January 17-18, 2025, at the South Padre Island Convention Center. This year’s theme, “Building Bridges for Students’ Success,” will bring together educators, researchers, and leaders dedicated to advancing bilingual education in the Rio Grande Valley and beyond.

This is an excellent opportunity to collaborate, learn from one another, and explore best practices in bilingual and ESL education in our region and beyond! The conference will feature workshops, speakers, and presentations that will equip you with the tools and insights needed to enhance your programs.

Like you, I have a strong passion for advocating for bilingual education across our region. I encourage you to attend and submit a presentation proposal to share your expertise and the great things that are happening for your students! Let’s extend our professional learning network!

 

Please find the attached flyer with additional details, and feel free to reach out if you have any questions. We look forward to your participation and can’t wait to see you at the conference!

Note: If your district or campus has applied for bilingual exceptions or ESL waivers, this would be an ideal use of the 10% allocation allowed for professional development—helping ensure your educators are equipped to meet the needs of emergent bilingual students.

Con todo mi aprecio,

Francisco Faticati
