Resources for Texas Educators
 
The 2009 Texas High School Educators Retreat, at Lone Star College in Montgomery, Texas, is designed to assist teachers to cover topics required in the Texas Essential of Knowledge and Skills TEKS and Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) exam.  This experience will have educators, like you, spending three educational and fun-filled days in the summer learning about the many facets of surveying in the state of Texas. In addition, it will provide knowledge pertaining to the great career opportunities to present to your students. Helpful teaching and career-plan materials will be made available for you to pass along to your students.

Check back soon for more on this June 2009 event, but information and resources can be accessed now. Take a moment to review some of these land surveying/GIS/mapping education resources and realize the tremendous opportunities for your students who choose a land surveying career path!
