SLATE is
NCTE's grassroots network that
· seeks to influence
public attitudes and policy decisions affecting the teaching of
English language arts at local,
state, and national levels;
· seeks to implement
and publicize the policies adopted by the National Council of Teachers
of English; and
· serves as NCTE's
intellectual freedom network, providing support for those facing
censorship challenges.
Every NCTE member will
receive SLATE updates on a regular basis, will have an opportunity to
participate in SLATE campaigns, and will occasionally be invited to
support SLATE through voluntary contributions.
