Rebecca Pringle Biography :

Rebecca Becky Pringle, an eighth grade physical science teacher from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, was re-elected for a second three-year term to the National Education Association’s (NEA) nine-member Executive Committee in July 2004.

A middle school teacher with 29 years’ classroom experience, Pringle has held Association positions at the national, state and local levels. For the past five years, she has served on the Board of Directors of the NEA. She has also served on the Pennsylvania State Education Association’s Board.

Pringle’s long history of leadership has included attention to diversity issues, student achievement, and developing leaders within the Association. She chaired the PSEA Human and Civil Rights Award Committee, the PSEA Task Force on Minority Representation, and the Strategic Planning Committee on Diversity for her local Susquehanna Township School District. In addition, she served as regional chair of the PSEA Leadership Development Committee and on the Institute for Educational Leadership Task Force.

Since being elected to her post on the Executive Committee for NEA, Pringle has served on the NEA’s Women’s Issues Committee, Distance Learning Task Force and both the National and State Media Advisory Groups. With the passage of the latest reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, Pringle has become a leader in the organization as chair of NEA’s ESEA Advisory Committee. She also serves on the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards.

Pringle has been active in the area of literacy and served as the chair of NEA’s Reading Task Force. As a member of NEA’s Professional Standards and Practices Committee, she provided leadership in the development of the Committee’s report on Excellence and Equity: Closing the Student Achievement Gaps. She has been honored with the Pennsylvania Academy for the Profession of Teaching Award, and AAUW’s Harrisburg Community Woman of the Year Award. Pringle currently teaches at Susquehanna Township Middle School.

A Philadelphia native, Pringle received her Bachelor of Science degree in elementary education from the University of Pittsburgh in 1976. She earned a Master’s of Education from Pennsylvania State University in 1989. She and her husband, Nathan, live in Harrisburg. Their son, Nathan III, is a recent graduate from Drexel University, and their daughter, Lauren, is a senior at New York University.

The NEA Executive Committee comprises the three NEA executive officers plus six members elected at large.
