Build Your Stack® Committee
Charge
The committee for Build Your Stack will work to further develop this initiative launched in 2018. Creating and curating content will be part of this charge. As the Build Your Stack (BYS) initiative gets off the ground, other potential programmatic efforts will support the connection between NCTE, teachers, and books. The committee will be responsible for making sure content meets NCTE’s vision for this initiative and aligns with the organization’s position statements. Another component of this work will be preparing for the NCTE Annual Convention.
