This is the type of conference that is inspiring to you as a teacher, but also as a human. It gives such hope when you see that there are so many people, organizations, and amazing students working to make a positive change in our world. Register for many reasons: to gather ideas for strengthening your community and your students, for building up your professional development hours, or for a chance to stop by the local Ikea store or grab a burger at The Varsity, The World's Largest Drive-in Restaurant. All good enough reasons to attend. However, an awesome reason to register is for an opportunity to hear Greg Mortenson speak!
Oh, the shame..... We were actually at the conference when the news came to 'catch him' and his many lies. Ouch.
