What Is the STI?

 

In 2001, the Schalmont Teachers' Association and the Schalmont Central School District collaborated to created a single district teacher center at Schalmont.  Funded by a grant from the New York State Education Department, the Schalmont Teachers' Institute (STI) became a reality in December, 2001 and joined 125 teacher centers from across the state to provide high quality, meaningful professional development opportunities for teachers.

By creating our own center, we have been able to tailor the professional development opportunities offered directly to the needs of our teachers.
