Conference InformationSchedule:The Leadership Curriculum Module Training will begin at 9 a.m. Monday, July 7, and end at noon on Wednesday, July 9, 2008. The pre-conference workshops will begin at 9 a.m. Tuesday, July 8, and end at noon on Wednesday, July 9, 2008. The Opening General Session is scheduled for Wednesday afternoon, July 9, followed by state meetings.
* Active school sites are those that participated in the 2008 HSTW/MMGW Assessment and those schools that joined the HSTW/MMGW/TCTW networks too late to participate in the 2008 Assessment. ** Those paying by purchase order must make payment in full before June 20. If you are unable to pay before June 20, you should be prepared to pay on-site at the registration desk with cash, check or money order. This change in policy is due to the difficulty in collecting purchase order payments. Note: For those schools that have not paid registration fees from the 2007 Summer Staff Development Conference, it is important that payment be made before registering and paying for the 2008 Conference. *** If you have not pre-registered for the conference by June 20, 2008, you will have to register on-site and be prepared to pay by cash, check or money order at the higher conference fee. Registration fees include a publications packet, admission to all sessions, breakfasts and refreshment breaks on three days, and boxed lunches on two days. Registrants will be notified electronically of their registration status. Please be sure the e-mail address you provide can be accessed through July, since all communication will be electronic. If you do not receive an e-mail confirmation within three business days, call (404) 962-9629 weekdays or e-mail summerstaffdev@sreb.org for assistance.
Cancellations must be received by June 20, 2008. Substitutions can be made by e-mail before June 20. After June 20, substitutes must go to the registration desk to pick up the badge and materials for the individual they are replacing and then proceed to conference headquarters in the registration area in Delta Lobby B to obtain a new name badge.
Requests for Refunds: To qualify for a refund, cancellations must be received by June 20. A written request for a refund must be received by July 25, 2008. A $25 processing fee will be charged for each check issued.
