Conferences

I'm making a list of good conferences. I hope others will add to it when you become aware of them. Here are some of the parameters of conference attendance: Maybe -Title I, SLC, special grants, Bilingual, etc.
 * Great Conferences to Attend:** (from Marilyn)
 * Find** one on your own (this is not a "being invited" thing).
 * Locate** funding and obtain permission - from various sources (It changes year to year due to budgeting)
 * Write** the relevant academic rationale.
 * Obtain** the principal's signature.
 * Take** someone with you (the rationale being that it is more likely be implemented if two people share the excitement)
 * Upon returning**, find ways to **share** your knowledge with other teachers and **implement the new concepts**.
