17 DecGet Involved in NACOL

I am thinking about attending this conference. It seems like it would be a good one and it is nice to see something that is K-12 based and not higher learning with k-12 tacked on the end to up the participants.
If there is something that we could do from up here in the cold, to assist in this conference just let us know. If you have some great ideas for a joint presentation or something we are all about partnerships…I have talked to my staff and asked them to submit proposals and I will send and pay their way if their proposal is accepted.
