ELEMENTARY TEACHERS WITH A MATHEMATICS CONCENTRATION
The Association of Mathematics Teachers of New
York State (AMTNYS) announces that applications are available
after the middle of February from your Education and Mathematics
Departments for its Scholarships. These awards are presented to
outstanding Undergraduates who are enrolled in a Teacher Education
Program in New York State and who have completed at least 18 credit
hours of Mathematics. The cumulative G.P.A. must be at least 3.25.
Applicants may be in their Senior year. Awards are based on a committee
evaluation of each student's achievement throughout their academic
program, as well as their involvement with and contributions to
their school and the mathematics community. Financial need is not
a criterion.

| The entire membership
of AMTNYS acknowledges with pride our accomplishments in helping
prospective teachers of mathematics.
AMTNYS began the scholarship program in 1987 with 1 award. The following
year, we awarded 2 scholarships. In 1994, with the generous support
of its membership, we incresed the number of scholarships to 3 awards.
We currently award four scholarships to assist a worthy few,
who are currently studying to be math teachers.
This money is primarily raised by donations given by members and friends
to The AMTNYS Scholarship Fund. (Simply indicate your donation
on your membership form)
In addition, the members of the Scholarship Sales
Committee take on the responsibility of raising additional dollars
from the sale of teaching aids, novelty items, educational games,
and shirts at our Annual Conferences.
About fifty volunteer members of this committee help in many ways
to make this possible. Volunteers are the backbone of AMTNYS.
Won't you join us? - Ona Masters |
Scholarship Sales Committee (SSC) at
the Annual Fall Conference
 |
At
the conference, we have a sales booth with all types of items
for sale. All proceeds go to support our
scholarship program. Won't you please stop by and support
our future teachers? We also coordinate sales of NCTM materials
at the same booth.
Come
take a look and take home something from the conference; for your
classroom, or just for yourself.
Either
way, we'd like to see you.
All
SSC volunteers get a free "thank you" gift.

Gift and Tax Planning Ideas
The reasons why people make charitable gifts to the Scholarship
Fund may include:
- It's a win-win situation by helping increase our pool of future
math teachers
- A heart-felt desire to help others
- A close affiliation with AMTNYS
- A sense of personal gratification
- A recognition of the best and brightest of our future math
teachers
- A way to honor and memorialize people
- A possible tax deduction for those that itemize on tax returns
Although tax savings rarely rank as a donor's primary motivation,
favorable tax treatment can help make your gifts more affordable.
For example, if you give $1,000 and are in the 36% tax bracket,
you pay $360 less in taxes. If you are in a higher tax bracket,
your savings are even greater. All transactions affecting taxes
due in April must be taken no later than December 31st.
If you are interested in making a donation, please make your check
out to AMTNYS Scholarship Fund and send it to Ms. Linda Pearles,
186 Bittersweet Dr., Farmington, NY 14425-7017
Thanks for helping our future math teachers! |
