2011 New England Conference Advisory Group

New England Conference for PreK-3rd Grade Educators

To provide you with the highest quality conference, we did our “homework” to find out what New England PreK-3 teachers want and need most.

Early in the school season, we assembled a group of 14 New England PreK-3 teachers as our conference advisory group. We reviewed with them our initial plans for conference topics and sessions, and listened carefully to their insightful observations and suggestions for improvement.

As a result, we have produced a very exciting conference that precisely meets the needs of PreK-3 educators all across New England.

This is an event NOT TO BE MISSED! Mark your calendar and register today for an experience you'll continue to benefit from for years to come!
