Kansas Association of Teachers of English Honored with 2023 Affiliate Journal of Excellence Award from National Council of Teachers of English

Champaign, Illinois – The National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE) has selected the Kansas Association of Teachers of English (KATE), as a 2023 Affiliate Journal of Excellence Award honoree.

Kansas English, edited by Katherine Mason Cramer, and published by the Kansas Association of Teachers of English (KATE), has been named a recipient of the 2023 Affiliate Journal of Excellence Program Award, given by the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE).

Established in 1995, this award honors outstanding affiliate journals and their editors who demonstrate excellence in these publications. The winning affiliate journal must be a magazine-type publication – print or online – and provide members with scholarly articles on issues and topics related to English language arts teaching. The journals are judged on content, organization, and scholarly exploration, appeal to many different groups within the affiliate, coverage of important issues in English language arts education, and inclusion of other types of writing (e.g., poetry, affiliate news, book reviews).

The Affiliate Journal of Excellence Award winners will be announced at the 2023 NCTE Annual Convention in Columbus, Ohio, during the Affiliate Session on Sunday, November 19.
