Subject Area Representatives for CWS
Subject Area Representatives (SARs) are STANYS members who represent their
Section in one of the following areas: earth science, biology, environmental
science, chemistry, physics, elementary science, intermediate level science,
college science, and retirees. The SAR concept originated with STANYS during
the reorganization of the State Education Department and before the BOCES supported
Mentor program began. We expect SARs to:
- Participate in the DAL/SAR-led workshops at the STANYS Annual Conference
in November.
- Attend the annual SAR leadership workshop. Long distance travelers get their
overnight accommodations paid for by STANYS.
- Conduct or help arrange a Section workshop once a year. CWS arranges an
annual workshop in which all the SARs are involved in some way. The workshop
is usually held in early February at Nazareth College.
- Contribute a report or article to the Section Newsletter.
This may include an update from the State Education Dept., local or state activities, and meeting notices.
- Be a member and support the mission of STANYS.
The 2007-2008 Central Western Section SARs are:
