In loving memory and honor of our wonderful friend and colleague, NJCTE announces the formation of the Patricia L. Schall visual literacy award. This award, to be presented annually at the fall conference, recognizes the significant impact of authors and illustrators who create works for young people. The inaugural award will be presented at the Fall 2021 NJCTE Conference.
It is with regret that NJCTE announces the cancellation of our annual Fall Conference for Fall 2020.
We are in the process of developing alternative online events. Please stay tuned for additional news about programming that we plan to offer in summer and fall to meet your professional needs.
