Mission Statement:Membership in The Delta Kappa Gamma Society International shall be by invitation.
Membership Qualifications
Members include educators in both private and public sectors: teachers, college and university professors, administrators and supervisors, librarians and educational specialists.
Selection is based on professional qualifications, leadership potential and personal qualities. A prospective member must have three or more years in educational work and employment in the profession at the time of consideration.
Those who accept the invitation to join commit themselves to taking an active part in programs, special projects and organizational activities.
Members are expected to participate regularly at chapter meetings and to assume certain financial obligations as well. Dues are determined in accordance with the Constitution, the International Standing Rules, state organization bylaws and chapter rules. There are also nominal annual assessments to support programs and projects.
The rewards of membership bear a direct relationship to each individual's commitment. Programs are designed to create a stimulating environment for the professional and personal growth of each member as well as to focus group attention on current educational issues and to allow formulation of alternatives and solutions.
Chapters carry out their own programs and projects through this framework. Programs are further enhanced at the state and international levels through special projects and meetings.
Please click here for a booklet brochure that you can personalize for your new initiates. You can download the brochure, ammend it, and use it from year to year. We would like to thank ETA Chapter for sharing this idea. Roxanne Adinolfi has removed the specifics related to ETA Chapter so that each chapter president and/or initiation chair can make necessary additions/deletions.
