This resolution commends the Professional Association of Georgia Educators (PAGE), a statewide organization with over 93,000 members including teachers, administrators, and support personnel, on its 50th anniversary in 2025. The resolution highlights PAGE's mission to improve educational conditions in Georgia, noting its various educational programs such as the Academic Bowl, Georgia Academic Decathlon, and Student and Teacher Achievement Recognition (STAR) program. It also recognizes PAGE's efforts to promote teaching as a profession by sponsoring Future Georgia Educators chapters, providing legal protection and professional development for educators, and actively participating in the legislative process to improve education. The resolution specifically designates February 18, 2025, as PAGE Day at the state capitol, during which PAGE members and leaders will meet with local legislators, and it directs the Secretary of the Senate to make an official copy of the resolution available for distribution to PAGE in recognition of their ongoing advocacy and support for public education in Georgia.
