also accept checks/credit cards. This is a professional development opportunity! It is for counselors, administrators and coordinators. First year counselors would learn a lot from our seasoned counselors during these conferences.

of your professional learning network.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

evening, we enjoy the relaxing atmosphere and visit. The second day we begin with breakfast and sharing of resources and learning from others. We will dismiss after lunch.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#002060">We would love for you to join us at the wonderful, relaxing places around the state. You don’t want to miss one of these as you learn so much while there. We do have a limited number
