There is now a vacancy in the position of TCTA Curriculum & Instruction Chairperson. Ms. Melody Young, the previous chair, was elected to the office of President-Elect effective June 1, 2023.

the current TCTA Bylaws provides that:
In case of a vacancy in the office of Standing Committee Chairperson, the Directors’ Council shall elect a successor.
The remainder of this term of
office for Curriculum & Instruction Chairperson extends through May 31,
2024. Accordingly, we are seeking nominations of qualified individuals to fill
the final year of this two-year term.
Article
VI, Section 1, C, of the current TCTA Bylaws provides that:
