Faculty advisors enter their teams online at the New York Fed's website.
Schools must be in the Second Federal Reserve district which includes New York State; Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Hunterdon, Middlesex, Monmouth, Morris, Passaic, Somerset, Sussex, Union and Warren counties in New Jersey; and Fairfield County in Connecticut.
Each school can enter one team. If schools want to organize practice or other competitions for their second or third teams, we are happy to assist by sending advisor e-mail addresses to interested faculty advisors.
All correspondence, including sign-up and materials distribution, will be done electronically through the New York Fed's website or e-mail. It is the responsibility of faculty advisors and student participants to check the website for notices and posted materials and to read all e-mail messages carefully. There will be no exceptions to this policy. Teams are encouraged to sign up for an e-mail alert that will inform them of changes to the website.
Faculty advisors will be asked to:
Indicate their team's participation in the Competitive, Instructional or Western New York division.
Indicate if they want to bring their students to a student orientation session and sign up for the session they wish to attend.
Have their school principal send an endorsement via e-mail to the program coordinator, Jane Katz at jane.katz@ny.frb.org. This endorsement is required for team participation.
Principal acknowledgement 2012
Note: Other adults, such as parents or interested community members, can serve as faculty advisors, but they must receive permission and endorsement from the school principal. The principal should e-mail the program coordinator, as described above.
