I was asked to generate a list of professional organizations for educators in PA. This list will become part of the induction resources that Central Bucks SD provides to new teachers. I thought that I’d share the list with you. If I am leaving out anything, please post a comment. I created this list as a Google Doc. It is posted at http://snipurl.com/221pa. If you would like for me to share this document with you, you can sign into your Google Docs account, open the list (http://snipurl.com/221pa), click on Edit This Page (lower right corner), and request an invitation.
