Gamma Nu sent eight enthusiastic members to the recent Florida State Organization Fall Executive Board Meeting in Lake Mary.
Our chapter reimburses the registration fee for members who attend. We enjoy carpooling and room sharing. At the recent event, we learned so much at the breakout sessions, enjoyed the Friday evening Italian buffet dinner, Saturday luncheon, and the many connections we made with amazing educators from around the state.
If you aren't pictured above, how about joining us for the 50th state convention scheduled from April 25-27?
DKG is unlike any other organization - its commitment to education, unity among key women educators, and the ongoing, unwavering support of one another is truly remarkable!

Members of Gamma Nu are participating as ENCOURAGERS to a special cohort of future educators who are on an alternative pathway toward teacher certification through Florida Gulf Coast University. These educators are already working as paraprofessionals and in other staff support positions within our schools and will earn a Bachelor's degree in Education. These teachers of record will be classroom-ready upon graduation in December 2025.
