The Executive Committee of
the 4Cs has decided to cancel the Spring
Meeting scheduled for May 10. There are several reasons. The most compelling
are that travel budgets of member associations are being cut and that
individual members have been notifying us they are unable to attend because
of scheduling conflicts. We are sorry to do this, but want to ensure
well-attended and productive meetings where the benefits to you and your
organization are fully realized.
SAVE THE NEW DATES:
The 4Cs Fall Meeting is scheduled for
October 4 in Sacramento.
CTC EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
TO SPEAK AT 4Cs FALL MEETING: Dale Janssen, Executive Director of the
Commission on Teacher Credentialing, has graciously agreed to give a
presentation at the Fall meeting on October 4 on changes in the
credentialing process including updates on the numbers and types of
credentials issued and projections of demand for teachers. When officials
from CTC speak at 4Cs meetings, the cycle from high school graduation to
college teacher training programs to school hiring driven by curricular and
testing issues to new high school graduates comes alive with hard data we
all can use.
PROPOSED DATES
FOR LUCKY 13th ANNUAL EDUCATION SUMMIT:
FEBRUARY 27 and 28, 2009.
After the election in November and changes in legislative leadership, this
should be a very interesting Summit.
If you know of conflicts
with either the October 4 Fall Meeting date or with February 27 and 28 for
the Summit, please email Brad Huff, 4Cs Chair, at
huffhaus@pacbell.net.
