¡Bienvenidos!
Welcome!
We are an organization composed of Spanish and Portuguese educators and other professionals in North Carolina. We embrace kindergarten teachers to college professors. We are a chapter of the national (and international) organization American Association of Teachers of Spanish and Portuguese (AATSP).
For most educators, this is a year-around profession even if we are only in the classroom ten months of the year. To this end, we sponsor and attend several conferences throughout the year, including:
- Spring Conference: traditionally a joint conference of AATSP-NC and AATF-NC (American Association of Teachers of French in North Carolina). In 2010 we are collaborating with SCOLT for the Spring Conference. It will be held in Winston-Salem April 15-17. For more information, please see SCOLT's website at www.scolt.org.
- Summer Conference: AATSP holds an annual conference during the summer. In 2010, it will be held in Guadalajara, Jalisco, México. For more information go to www.aatsp.org.
- Fall Conference: held during the Foreign Language Association of North Carolina (FLANC) annual fall conference. In 2010 it will be in Raleigh, NC, September 30-October 2 at the Capital Sheraton. For more information go to www.flanc.org.
We are delighted that you took a minute to learn more about the AATSP in North Carolina. We believe that our teachers care for the future of our cities, our state, our country, and our world. We invite you to stay involved and challenge you to become a member of our organization (if you are not a member already).
If you have any questions, please get in touch with one of our chapter officers. We will be happy to answer all your questions.
Sincerely,
The AATSP-NC Officers
