FLORIDA ASSOCIATION OF PARTNERS IN EDUCATION CONFERENCE

  

It is my pleasure to announce the Florida Partners in Education Conference, hosted by the Florida

Department of Education and the Florida Association of Partners in Education, which will take place

April 15-17, 2009, at the Daytona Beach Hilton Resort, Daytona Beach, Florida. This year’s theme,

“Stayin’ Alive 35,”

 

is reflective of the association’s thirty-five

most current issues in education and community involvement.

 

All district, school, and community personnel who are interested in enhancing community involvement in

education are invited. The workshops and general sessions feature nationally known speakers, as well as

the state’s most knowledgeable practitioners. Lunch and evening events will honor Florida’s Outstanding

School Volunteers, superintendents for their support of volunteer/community programs, and exemplary

business partners at the Commissioner’s Business Recognition Awards.

For more information or to register, visit the Florida Partners in Education Web site at www.flpie.net or

contact Susan Walton at the Bureau of Family and Community Outreach at Susan.Walton@fldoe.org.
