Equity Rate

We understand that times are tough right now for everyone, especially when it comes to money and finances!  Therefore, we want to let you know that there are options for fees for each of the workshops.  There are FULL RATES for in-service students and pre-service teachers.  The third rate is an EQUITY RATE, which is an option for any interested attendee who is finding the full rates prohibitive.  We want to ensure that people with a passion are able to attend these workshops – and don’t want money to get in the way.  So, if you are interested in attending, but the full cost is too much, please use the EQUITY RATE.  No questions asked!

  • Workshop 2: Equity rate:  $10
