Hooray for teacher leaders!!
Hi everyone - so nice to get to talk with many of you yesterday!
I'm Kirstin Milks, a high school science teacher in Indiana, and I'd love to provide information about the Knowles Teacher Initiative (including writing for our journal, Kaleidoscope) as well as PAEMST.
Please let me know if you have any questions -- or just post to say hello! Looking forward to networking so we can all keep learning how to stretch ourselves as leaders. :) Kirstin

Hi Kathy! I did have a mentor -- your state coordinator will have contacts for you! He was incredibly helpful, especially in encouraging me to re-apply after looking with me at my feedback from the first year.

So many amazing opportunities out there!
Hi everyone! I enjoyed hearing many of your stories and experiences last night. I learned so much from all of you so thank you for sharing.

Over the years I have engaged in many wonderful and inspiring opportunities to grow as a professional but my experience as a NOYCE Fellow tops them all. I would be happy to continue to share my experience as a NOYCE Fellow and will answer any of your questions. Please dont hesitate to reach out!
There really are a lot of opportunities out there for us to improve our own practice and to continue to grow as STEM teacher leaders!
