There are some changes in the registration procedures for 2012. The biggest one is that you must pay your dues for 2012 before you register for the exam. This applies to both new and returning teachers. Also note that the application deadline for the senior scholarship has been changed to May 15, 2012.

You will find anything I send out to the chapter posted on this page, but I will be happy to answer any questions or find out the information if I don't know. Deadlines given below are based on the previous year. Any changes will be indicated here in the announcement section.
