NPAECT Extra Mile Award Dinner May 14th
It is time again for the NPAECT Extra Mile Award Dinner and Recognition Event. Each year, we gather to honor those folks from our learning communities who have made the effort, taken the initiative, supported others and helped to encourage the use of Technology in our schools. We have recognized some outstanding people over the past years and expect the group to be just as worthy this year.
The event is a dinner meeting held at Nick’s Place in Edinboro on May 14th. The buffet is always good and the Connecting, Communicating, Collaborating and Celebrating makes the evening enjoyable.
Join us at 5:30 for appetizers and conversation. Extra Mile Award winners and a guest will be NPAECT’s guests for the dinner. The dinner is included in membership for current members. Others who may wish to attend can become members ($15/year) or can pay for the dinner ($8).
Registration is open Please register by May 7th.
The dinner and celebration will be a great way to begin the end of the school year. Please join us!
