Message to Members:
​
For nearly 100 years, women teachers in DKG have rallied to the call of promoting education and supporting educators. The mission of the Society has been staunchly carried forth with strength and effectiveness. It has been so rewarding to have a small part in the leadership of our Tennessee State Organization over the past two years. Our state officers, related personnel, area directors, committees, chapter officers, and members have unflaggingly and creatively performed the work assigned to them, and the results have been amazing!
As we transition to new leadership at the state level, I encourage all of you to become more involved in the work of our Society by serving on a state committee and/or accepting a leadership role in your chapters. I assure you that the duties will never be palling if we work together staunchly in a spirit of unity and harmony.
