Letter
From The
President
We
often
hear the term
‘professional growth’ in today’s changing educational climate. Finding
programs to assist in professional development in a convenient
and enjoyable form is often difficult. The New York Biology
Teachers’ Association can help.
We are an
organization of teachers helping teachers. For more
than 100 years the NYBTA has been providing our members with lectures,
workshops, and field trips in a collegial atmosphere that makes
professional growth enjoyable.
Whether
you are
a new teacher seeking ideas for creative lessons
or an experienced teacher wishing to hone your skills, NYBTA is for
you. We provide opportunities for that
and more in a friendly and sociable atmosphere.
Membership
brings regular mailings and a
host of activities at
no charge for NYBTA members. Become active beyond your school
through regular participation in NYBTA activities. Regular
participation not only helps you to grow professionally, but increases
the number of colleagues with whom you can interact. Our modest $20.00
annual dues are possible because of our all-volunteer staff. Join
us and share the
experience!
Special
Offer: Members
can subscribe (or
extend a subscription) to Discover Magazine for 1 year at
$12.00 if you renew or join NYBTA.
Bonus: We
will be giving out a free NYBTA
Tee Shirt to every NYBTA member of school year 2007-2008 at our events
throughout the year (One shirt per member.).
I look forward to seeing you at
our
upcoming events.
