Thanks for a fun week!  I enjoyed meeting new people, hearing the excellent speakers, and being trusted and treated as a professional.  Thanks to the wellness component, this has been one of the few workshops when I haven't felt exhausted at the end of the day.

- Melinda Mulcahy, Black Hills H.S.

 Great Workshop!  I feel healthier than the beginning of the week.  Thank you for the wellness options.  The speakers were excellent, and the buzz sessions are great for collaborating with teachers in our grade level.

NCESD Clock Hours: Educators do need to register before the class and pay for clock hours on-line but they don't pay for them until after the class is finished.  After the last day of class, the instructors will go into the system and if someone went less than the 50 hours they will put the correct amount in.  The instructors will then mark participants attended.  Once marked attended participants will get an automatic email from the system that gives them 7 days to fill out the evaluation and purchase their clock hours on-line.  Note: Staff development funds may be used for these classes (check with your school district). Also, Treasury Regulation Schedule I-162 permits income tax deduction. Be sure to save your receipt. There will be a $100 non refundable deposit and no refunds after June 1.

Class sizes are limited-based on facility capacity.
