STANYS Fellows New Teacher |
The Fellows Endowment Fund, created in 1984, enabled the STANYS Fellowship Committee to establish a conference award for new teachers starting in 1992. The award supports the attendance of a second through fifth year teacher at the annual STANYS Conference. Room, board (standard double rate), and registration (but not transportation) are covered by this award. We are pleased that the fund has been benefiting promising new educators for a number of years. We hope their association with STANYS will continue to be part of a lifelong commitment to professional development. |
