Hello SAME Members,
Happy New Year! Yes, I know the first month of
the year is already gone…I’m a little behind. I hope
everyone is continuing to thrive even with all of the budget cuts
and proration hitting our states.
A write-up about our annual conference held at
the Dauphin Island Sea Lab, November 14-16, 2009, with pictures,
is located under the SAME annual meeting
archives.
Here are a couple upcoming events:
The deadline for SAME’s scholarship application
is February 27, 2009. The scholarship is for
a K-12 classroom teacher towards the registration fee for the

two scholarships available this year! The application can be found

The National
Science Teachers Association meeting is in New Orleans, LA

the NMEA Session: Whale of a Share-a-Thon, Thursday, March 19,

you there.
If there’s anything else you’d like

Enjoy your winter!
