New Reading
Award Announced
PLT has just
announced the establishment of a new reading award. The Frances Mottey Beck Middle-School “Ah-Ha” Reading
Award is presented in recognition of a middle-school educator or
team of educators who has designed an effective, replicable
program for advancing reading/literacy. The award consists of a
cash payment of two thousand dollars ($2000). It was
established in 2008. It is underwritten by the John and Frances
Beck Foundation and is co-sponsored by Pi Lambda Theta.
Sept. 29, 2008 deadline
for proposals
to present at the 2009 NSDC summer conference
Boston -- July 19-22, 2009
Together next summer: PLT will hold its 46th biennial delegate council
during NSDC’s summer teacher-leader conference! PLT
activities will be held during the conference.
Whether or not
you plan to present,
ask your
principal or director of professional learning to fund you
before their budgets are spoken for. They all know NSDC.
Most of them are NSDC members. They’ll support you if they can.
Reminder for students
If you plan
to participate in a formal graduation ceremony, order your gold
honor cord early to assure timely delivery. Check first to be
sure your institution permits honor cords.
