I am running for CADA Vice President
- We Reach Out to the students on our schools to connect them to student activities. We understand that a school activities program sets the school climate and culture, and kids who are involved and enjoy school outside the classroom are more likely to be successful in the classroom.
- We Reach Out to student leaders across the state of California and beyond. CADA and CASL host programs throughout the school year to train student leaders, giving them the motivation and confidence they need to lead, as well as the tools to put on successful student activities.
- We Reach Out to each other as educational professionals involved with student activities. From ASB Directors to account clerks, administrators to cheer coaches, class advisers to yearbook advisers, we Reach Out to each other to provide friendship, new ideas, and support, at a time when we as educators need each other the most.
Please join me as we Reach Out to everyone in the CADA community, and join me at the CADA State Convention, March 2-5, 2011, at the Town and Country Resort in San Diego, CA. For registration information, please visit http://www.cada1.org, and check this blog each week for new activity ideas!

Using Twitter Fast Follow to Reach Out back at your school
Twitter Fast Follow is a great way to Reach Out to students and families back at your school. How do teens communicate most? Via text message! Now you can use Twitter to send text messages to your student body! They DON'T need a Twitter account and they DON'T need a smartphone (iPhone, Blackberry, Android, etc); all they need is a cell phone that can send and receive text messages.
