Ann Henley Conference Scholarship Now Open

The scholarship will be awarded annually to an NAESP member who has never attended an annual conference

The Ann Henley NAESP annual conference scholarship has been established in honor and memory of longtime NAESP staffer, Ann Henley, who passed away unexpectedly on Friday, April 5, 2019.Ann Henley

She served in various roles at NAESP, most recently as NAESP’s Associate Executive Director of Membership and Marketing Services. In addition to her day-to-day responsibilities, she admired, supported, encouraged, and loved elementary and middle-level principals. Ann’s support of school leaders, specifically the NAESP state representatives, and of public education is a major part of her legacy. In recognition of Ann’s support of school leaders throughout her career at NAESP, the scholarship is awarded annually to a NAESP member attending the annual Pre-K-8 Principals Conference™ for the first time.
