2015 MCTM Elections

It is time again for the Annual MCTM Elections.

According to the Montana Council of Teachers of Mathematics Bylaws (Article III, Section 1) “the membership of the Council shall elect from its members eight (8) directors. The term of office for each director shall be three (3) years. These directors shall be elected in such a way that each of the five regions shall always be represented by at least one representative. The directors shall also be elected in such a way that each level, elementary (K-4), upper elementary (5-8), secondary (9-12), and higher education (13-up) shall be represented by no less than one director at all times. No member of the MCTM may serve more than one elected term unless a time of five years has elapsed between terms.”

The following Directors remain active through the year indicated:

Jason Stewart, Region I, 9-12 (2017)

John George, Region III, 9-12 (2016)

Pamela Murnion, Region III, K-4 (2016)

Jennifer Brackney, Region IV, 5-8 (2016)

Leslie Bogar, Region V, 9-12 (2017)

Three current Board members have terms that expire this June:

Don Hickethier, Region I, higher ed (2015)

Deb Wickum, Region II, 9-12 (2015)

Hilary Risser, Region III, higher ed (2015)

Furthermore, (Article III, Section 6), “The president-elect will be elected in odd numbered years.”

Therefore, we must elect at least one candidate from each of the following areas: President-Elect, Region II, and Higher Education.
