Krey has been on the executive board of WCSS for 30 years. From 1983 to 1985 she served as president of the organization. She was recently elected to serve another two-year term on the board, representing Northwestern Wisconsin. I ve gotten as much back from the group as I ve given. She said one thing she has gained is knowledge.
Social studies is such a broad area, and there is so much to know.
She attended conventions and participated in workshops, bringing new ideas back to the classroom. She also gained by becoming part of a professional community that has goals similar to hers. This helped her to develop a professional identity. Finally, she gained friends. The friends I ve made are very important to me.
