MOACTE/MBEA Summer Conference
The 2017 MOACTE/MBEA Summer Conference will be Monday July 24 - Thursday July 27, 2017 at the University Plaza Hotel in Springfield.
We are actively looking for presenters for this year's conference! Please consider sharing one of your best practices with fellow MBEA members. The conference can only be a success when our members share with one another. The officers wish to have a tentative schedule published by the first of April so that everyone can have the opportunity to plan and get approvals from their schools.
If you are a new teacher with three or fewer years of experience and have never attended the MOACTE/MBEA Summer Conference fill out the New Professional Stipend form!
