AFA Exhibits at NSTA Conference

AFA hosted an informational booth last week during the National Science Teachers Association’s National Conference, held in New Orleans, March 19-22nd. During the four-day conference, over 500 attendees visited the AFA booth and took away information on local chapters, grant and scholarship opportunities, as well as membership. Ann Sagle and Hurlburt Chapter member Jeri Martin manned the booth. Jeri’s temporary duty costs and attendance fees were covered by the Hurlburt Chapter. Bill Yucuis, AFA Central Florida Chapter Vice President was also in attendance, sponsored by USA Today. Bill and his school were winners of the USA TODAY 2008 No Boundaries competition.

On Saturday, AFA and USA TODAY held a 90-minute joint workshop for attendees. Also in attendance, were a number of AFA members, former chapter and state teachers of the year, and former AEF Board members. This was AFA’s fifth year participating in this event. Held annually, the National Conference attracts over 8,000 STEM educators.
