SAM Membership Renewal Drive 2023-24!  

Here is what you need to know to renew your SAM membership.

Reminder:  

District Clerks/Business Managers are designated as a district's key contact for MASS, MASSP, MAEMSP, META, and MCASE members working in a district and will need to complete the online renewal form.  MCASE members and other affiliate members not associated with a school district will complete their own renewal form.  While completing the renewal form, the district clerk/business manager will have the ability to unlink members leaving a district and add members new to a district.  If an administrator begins working in a district after a district's renewal process is complete, the new member should complete the New Member Form to become a SAM member for 2023-24 or call the SAM office (406-442-2510) for assistance.    

The Membership Renewal Process

For most school districts, the district clerk is the “key contact” for receiving a membership renewal email and will need to complete the membership renewal process on behalf of the MASS, MASSP, MAEMSP, META, and MCASE members in the district.  Members not associated with a school district must complete their own membership renewal form.  Membership dues need to be paid by check and not credit card. 

How to Create Your SAM Account Profile:

• Your email address is your Username

Completing the Membership Renewal Form:

Now that you have access to your profile, you will be able to do the following steps for membership renewal:

• Once logged into your profile, you will see the first of two Membership pages where you will see your organization, phone, address, and email of the key contact.
• Click Next to go to your Organization Membership page.
• On the Organization Membership page, you will see a list of all current SAM members in your district. You can click on the name of any member and see exactly what memberships each person belongs to.  You will see the member’s contact information first, then the membership type below.
• Please check each of your members and see if their membership accurately reflects their desired membership or if there is an adjustment or change. If there is any change, just check the button for the correct membership type. 
• If a member is leaving your district, you can unlink that member – simply click on the Unlink to the right of that member’s name.  Once you click “Unlink”, also click “None” for that member’s affiliate membership type to remove the membership charge from the invoice.
• To add a new district administrator that will be seeking a SAM membership, just click on the Create Linked Profile button at the bottom of the page and fill out the form that appears; check the type of affiliate for this new member; click on the radio button next to the type of membership for that affiliate.    
• On the Summary page, please confirm your membership renewals and changes that you may have made on this page plus any SAM LPLP registrants. If you need to make any further edits, click on the Previous button to go back. Once confirmed that all is correct, then click on the Next button which will take you to the Payment page.
• On the Payment page, select Offline payment or Invoice Me from How you would like to pay drop down menu, then click on the Submit Form button at the bottom.
• Once submitted, you will receive an email with a new invoice. 

Please call the SAM office (406-442-2510) if you need any assistance.
