Parents! Students! Educators of all types! Are you looking for some new connections in the education world? In search of resources for your teaching practice, instructional program, and/or parenting prowess? What about non-social-media message boards for support, guidance, and input? Consider joining us at the Council for Exceptional Children, where we have all that!
BUT WAIT, there’s more!
We’re looking for 10 people interested in joining this incredible organization and we’ll give you $50 back!
We’re hoping Washington’s teachers-veterans, newbies, and everyone in between-will join us in our advocacy for supporting students of all abilities. We have groups for every specialty if you’ve got that hyperfocus, communication, administrative, behavior, gifted, or any other instructional super skill! And if specifics aren’t your style, the general group gives you just as much connection and support.
If you just have to have this deal, let us know here at WACEC! We’ll connect with you off FB to exchange receipts and rebates, and then you’ll be in a whole new corner of the great wide internet. We’d love to have you and can’t wait to hear from you!
