The 2026 State Conference is Pennsylvania's only statewide educator conference dedicated to the middle grades. The Pennsylvania Association for Middle Level Education presents an exclusive marketing opportunity for business partners with a direct interest in the middle grades of 5-8.

Our attendees include teachers, instructional coaches, deans, assistant principals, principals, college faculty, district administrators, and pre-service teachers from all regions of the State. Our attendees are influencers and decision makers.

In today's nationwide teacher shortage, investing in a strong education system is more critical than ever. By sponsoring PAMLE, businesses have the opportunity to directly support the educators who shape our future workforce. Your partnership helps provide teachers with professional development, resources, and collaboration-tools they urgently need to stay inspired and impactful. Supporting educators isn't just goodwill; it's a strategic investment in the stability, talent, and innovation that every thriving business relies on.

When you partner with us, you join a team dedicated to the success of our middle school community. When you are part of our team, we want to do everything possible to ensure a positive return on your investment.
