   Does not apply

7. NCTM values its relationship with Affiliates. Please tell us how we might improve the existing services or offer new services that would best support the important work of your Affiliate.

   Continue to provide Regional meetings such as the one in Paducah . When held in a less urban setting, these meetings involve teachers that will never have the opportunity to become involved in NCTM National meetings. These are a true service to your membership rather than just fluff and show.
