Excellent summary. I love the quote by Bill Gates Sr. about preparing every student for university/college, even if they don't go". I totally agree that learning is priceless and the fees are necessary.Now I have another reason to travel to New York City. I live in North Eastern Saskatchewan, Canada by the way!!!<BR/>Thanks Again and I wish you and your class continued successes.Cheryl Morinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06262979940605882798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-221147792075613632.post-14806391403007387632009-03-09T10:01:00.000-04:002009-03-09T10:01:00.000-04:00Ira, I am very grateful to work in a district that...Ira, I am very grateful to work in a district that supports professional development. Although some costs have been cut, we still put aside a great deal of money for conferences. This allows me to get partial reimbursement for Educon, NECC, and this Celebration of Teaching and Learning. The rest I take off my taxes. It is something we fight for each year as we decide on the school budget.Lisa Parisihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00139683732388415845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-221147792075613632.post-82391155976736872592009-03-09T09:26:00.000-04:002009-03-09T09:26:00.000-04:00Sounds wonderful Lisa, I am green with envy.
