Come Join Us! We are looking for you
BARTA members Larry Klebenow, Jon Moore and Linda DeClue enjoy the lunch at Four Seasons.
Is there anything better than getting together with old friends and colleagues? Well, maybe, but seeing those folks with whom we can share our stories or who remember those extraordinary students and school events is very special. BARTA offers friendship and fellowship that grows from our past but connections and programs that keep us up-to-date with education and community matters.
Membership in BARTA is open to any current or former teacher or school administrator and their spouse.
The membership fee is only $10 per year. In August of each year BARTA sends a newsletter to current and prospective members, and included is a membership card that can be completed and returned so we can add new members to our roll. If you are not now a member but are interested in attending a meeting or receiving the August newsletter, just complete the Contact Form on the Resources & Contact page of this website. You may also call 812-372-7458.

Our 290-member roll includes people from Bartholomew County and the surrounding counties of Brown, Decatur, Jackson, Jennings, and Johnson counties.

The general membership of BARTA meets four times per year, September, November, March and May, for lunch and a program, followed by a business meeting. Generally the meetings last about 1 1/2 hours so that folks can be on their way by 1:00 pm.
