PWEA ESP of the Year Award
Each year, one Education Support Professional receives the PWEA ESP of the Year Award in recognition of their outstanding contribution to their schools, communities, and profession.
While it showcases one outstanding support professional each year, the Award recognizes and honors the contributions to great public schools all Education Support Professionals make year-round.

The purpose of the ESP Council shall be:
- To advocate for improved compensation, benefits and working conditions for ESP members
- To stimulate and enhance professional growth and development of the ESP classified group
- To provide a forum for group involvement in issues and activities which impact ESPs

Prince William Education Association Scholarships
The Prince William Education Association offers scholarships to members and members’ dependents. Four different scholarships are offered annually.
Scholarship applications are due in the PWEA office no later than 4:00 pm on Thursday, March 22, 2013.
Update on Continuing Contract
In the face of considerable opposition, VEA’s advocacy has preserved Continuing Contracts for teachers and protected a fair dismissal process for teachers. That’s the bottom‐line result for our members of the debates, vote‐counting and negotiations that have gone on in the past 18 months regarding teacher contracts in Virginia. Virginia teachers no longer face, as they did last year, losing Continuing Contract.
