On behalf of the staff of the National Science Teachers Association (NSTA) and our leadership team, I would like to thank the following members of our Board, Council, Standing Committees, Advisory Boards, and Panels whose terms of appointment end on May 31, 2013. NSTA is shaping the next generation of science education, and the experience, wisdom, and willingness of the following individuals to volunteer their time has been pivotal in guiding us in the past year. The theme of my presidency is “Build the Scaffolding for 21st Century Science Literacy,” and it’s been an amazing journey and a privilege to have them at my side throughout my tenure. So, to all of you on the list below, I say “Thank You” and I look forward to working with you in new capacities in the years to come.
NSTA members who are interested in volunteering for a position on one our committees, advisory boards, or review panels can find more information at http://www.nsta.org/involved/default.aspx#committees.

—Karen L. Ostlund, NSTA President, 2012–2013
