National Board Certification Interest Meeting

Teachers,

Melissa Shields from ALSDE is coming to TCS to answer any questions about National Board Certification.  I completed my National Board Certification 11 years ago, and just renewed it last year.  It was a great experience for me, and I really grew as an educator!  I would encourage you to attend this meeting if you have any interest at all.  This meeting is perfect for those of you that have even contemplated NBCT.  Please let Rachel.brockman@trussvillecityschools.com know if you will be attending.
