Participants at the 2008 institute had this to say:

 

“The caliber of the presenters was astounding! This was my first institute, but I may need to come back year after year. I feel energized and eager to teach/read/write again!”

 

“Overall this week can’t be beat for new ideas, updating and inspiration.”

 

“This week was restorative, and my heart was touched with the memory of why I cam to immerse myself in children’s lives, and why I have stayed. Thank you.”
