How FLENJ Serves You
FLENJ advances and promotes the teaching of world languages in the state of New Jersey. To accomplish this, we work to bring about improvements in the areas of concern for world language educators, such as: teacher training, articulation at all levels, and curriculum development. Each year our agenda includes:
- Two statewide conferences offering a complete program of interest to world language educators. We invite speakers of national and international reputation to address our membership;
- Workshops for professional development; and
- Publishing Multiverse.
- Receiving monthly e-mails from the president.
- E-verse, a virtual meeting place of FLENJ providing members an opportunity to dialogue about important issues and practices.
In addition, FLENJ awards:
- Competitive scholarships to high school seniors for continued language study;
- Certificates to one senior in each language in recognition of outstanding achievement in world languages;
- Grants to members for professional growth and development; and
- Honoring those professionals who have made significant contributions to world language teaching in New Jersey.
