@aatendnyc.bsky.social
We are the Asian American Teacher Empowerment Network Development (AATEND) supported by NYC Men Teach, where we offer an affinity space for Asian American educators that elevates who we are and what we can accomplish in the rich field of education.
Only 8% of teachers in NYC schools are AAPI. 📣 Join AATEND for Connection, Growth, & Empowerment! We offer a vital community for #AAPI #educators to connect, develop skills, and lead through professional learning & networking. #Empower & #amplify your educator story. Learn more: bit.ly/aatendinfo
