Dianne Huslin’s journey to becoming founding principal of the award-winning, Gates Foundation-funded High School of Science and Technology in San Diego was a long one — and it didn’t end there.
The convention also marked the end of service for two longtime national officers. AFSA President Leonard P. Pugliese and Executive Vice President Lauran Waters-Cherry stepped down after years of steadfast leadership.
Delegates took decisive action to protect federal support for schools, demand greater investment in school leadership and reaffirmed AFSA's commitment to putting students first.
