National Boards!
Congratulations!
You are a National Board Certified Teacher!
Your performance met the standard for National Board Certification set by the board of directors of the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards® (NBPTS).
The NBPTS Board of Directors and staff extend its best wishes for your continued success.
Jeff received some great news today-he is a National Board Certified Teacher! Teachers with more than three years of experience can become a candidate for national board certification and go through a portfolio/video/testing process. After turning in the portfolio in March, he finally received the scores today. Only about 40% of those who apply succeed in gaining certification, so it is a great professional accomplishment and in North Carolina it also means a pay raise! This is such a blessing, especially since I will be taking a leave of absence from work next semester. We are so thankful and I am very proud of Jeff for taking on the challenge. We went out to eat to celebrate, he may not look like it in the picture, but he really is happy. Great job sweetheart!
