New School Year
It's September and that means that stores have had their back-to-school sales and the yellow buses are bringing our eager children into our classrooms. It's never too early to start thinking about professional development, and here at the Teacher Center we have a plethora of opportunities for just that planned this year. Please share our information with your colleagues, particularly new teachers in your district, and stop by to visit us!
Conference Scholarships
Did you know that the Teacher Center offers scholarships to attend conferences that may not be covered by your district? We offer teachers up to $150 in reimbursement for conference registration fees. The number of scholarships available is limited, so contact us as soon as possible for application materials.
