Educators Rising believes in the importance of student voice, and the Educators Rising Ambassador Program is another opportunity for star students to amplify their voices in critical national conversations about teaching and learning. Ambassadors contribute their opinions and experiences on social media and are leaders among their peers.
The Educators Rising Ambassador Program allows you to add leadership experience to your college applications or résumés, have your voice heard on a national level, and network virtually with other rising educators and teachers from across the country. Applications for the National Student Ambassador Program for 2026-2027 will open in August 2026. Interested? Learn more.

The purpose of the voting delegates is to transact business items of the organization during the delegate meeting at the National Conference. Delegates vote on matters that pertain to the wellness of the organization and work to enhance the experiences of members. Each chartered State Affiliate with active members shall have one voting delegate, an additional voting delegate following the affiliation of the first 100 members, and one additional voting delegate following the affiliation of each 100 members, thereafter. The privilege of making motions, debating, and voting shall be limited to the designated voting delegates. The next delegate meeting will be at the 2026 Educators Rising National Conference.
