    We are going fully online for the only state-level conference for science teachers in Oregon!

    Plus, we have partnered with the Washington Science Teachers Association to bring you twice the experience in one conference.

    To access the membership rate, you will need to log into the website.
    Not sure how to log on?

    Why a virtual conference? We are committed to the safety and health of our attendees but also want to offer high quality science professional development and connection in a time of unknowns. This conference will focus on modeling virtual teaching techniques, equity in education, and STEM.
