Region III Achieves All-Platinum Status for the 2025–2026 Term

ASSP Region III is pleased to announce that all 13 Region III Chapters have once again achieved Platinum status for the 2025–2026 term.

Each ASSP Chapter is evaluated annually against a set of term requirements covering Chapter activities, member involvement, and benefit delivered to the membership.
Performance against those requirements determines the Chapter’s term achievement status. Platinum represents the highest level of achievement.
All 13 Region III Chapters met that standard.

This result reflects the sustained effort and commitment of Chapter leadership and volunteers across the Region. Congratulations to every Chapter and to the officers and members who made it possible!
