as well as interactions and support during the academic semesters. Teachers receive $5,000 stipend plus up to $1,000 for classroom materials to implement curricula they develop. Teachers have the week of July 1 off.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

If you know of any teachers, principals or schools who would be interested in hosting us, we'd be more than happy to come out and conduct a workshop for them. Teachers receive 6 professional credit hours for participating. I've attached an old flyer from
last year.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
