It's time to renew your NYBTA membership at
REDUCED
COST
As you know, NYBTA has
gone GREEN and has ceased sending meeting
notices via USPS and is sending notices
via e-mail and also posting them on our
web site. This saves paper and
postage and, with our all-volunteer staff,
saves money.
We are passing the
savings on to you. NYBTA HAS CUT ITS
MEMBERSHIP DUES IN HALF.
We will continue to have
meetings and events and continue to be a
clearinghouse for information of use to
biology teachers. Information of
events sponsored by other organizations
will be posted on our web site and
e-mailed to you as a single URL or post
which will not clutter your in-box.
NYBTA is an NABT affiliate and members get
discounted registration at the SCONYC
conference.
In order to renew your
membership or if you are not currently a
member, please return the form
below. As has been our policy, we
will NOT share your information with other
organizations. Please duplicate this
form and share it with your colleagues.

NYBTA is a 501(c)3
non-profit organization. Dues are tax
deductible to the extent allowed by law.
Why you should join NYBTA
As schools continue to
move into different phases of educational
reform, one factor that is consistent in
each school plan is the need for professional
development. 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 development
meaningful and enjoyable.
Whether you are
seeking ideas for creative lessons or
wishing to hone your skills, NYBTA is for
you. We provide opportunities for teachers in a sociable
atmosphere.
Regular participation
not only helps one grow professionally,
but increases the number of colleagues with whom one can
interact. Our modest $10.00 annual dues
are possible because of our all-volunteer
staff and our use of e-mail and our website for notices.
Join us and share the experience!
NYBTA is an affiliate
