We will be getting together on the evening of June 10 and all day June 11. This is an opportunity for us to get together and share what we have been doing for the past year. It's not about chit-chatting. It's about professional development where we talk about our successes and challenges in creating a different learning environment for our students, colleagues or ourselves.
