The Vanguard leadership team ordered sweatshirts for the upcoming school year. They have arrived and are probably the softest, most comfortable sweatshirts in existence.

If you are interested in ordering one, they cost $37.18 and will be delivered to your school when they arrive. The order will be open for two weeks, so please order as soon as you decide if you're getting one. If we do not meet the required number of orders, the entire order will be cancelled.

Presenting at GaETC? Consider submitting your presentation for ISTE as well! The call for proposals closes on September 29th, so don't wait!

How to Register: Please refer to a previous VanWeekly for specific instructions.

• Your registrations are not transferrable to other individuals if you are unable to attend or have your registration covered by presenting.
  
• Your school will not be reimbursed for a substitute if your position does not require one. This coverage is also not transferrable.
• You have until October 13th to register or your spot will be given away.
