NJEA offers strategies for success!

Welcome to the second year of NJEA’s Stepping Up. Whether you‘re a new member or a veteran member, this monthly
e-Newsletter offers strategies for having a successful year.

Be sure to check out this month’s tips for new teachers and educational support professionals on our new member site:

Managing Your classroom

Assessing your first month on the job

What they didn’t tell you in college

Maintaining an employment folder

Association survival tips

Establishing rapport with your students

Building relationships with your co-workers

And don’t forget to visit the Members Only website on njea.org -- all you need is your PIN (found on your NJEA membership card), and your password (the last four digits of your Social Security number).

You’ll find out how to create an on-line professional development transcript, exchange lesson plans, or take an e-learning course. There’s also detailed information about the status of current education-related bills, and additional discount opportunities for theater tickets, computers, and much more.

Spread the word

Quote of the month

“If you had one opportunity or one shot to seize everything you ever wanted in the profession you love, would you capture it or just let it go? There is no tomorrow ... it’s on us!”
