RE:                   2007 At-Risk Conference

We need your help in putting together a slide presentation to be shown at the At-Risk Conference, set for August 22, 2007 in the Amarillo Civic Center.

As shared in an earlier letter, the theme of the conference is Teachers: Everyday Heroes.

We would like pictures of these heroes at work with students in your schools.  Please send pictures electronically (jpeg) to lynda.queen@esc16.net , or you may mail them to Region 16 ESC, attention: Lynda Queen.  We need all pictures no later than

May 1, 2007.

If you have questions, please call Lynda at 677-5429.

We hope that each of you will take advantage of this opportunity to showcase your teachers and students.  Thanks in advance for your help.
