On August 24, USA|Kansas will kick off its annual Fall regional meetings in Concordia. Once again, we are pleased to announce that Alexa Posny, Commissioner of Education; Mr. Dale Dennis, Deputy Commissioner; and Diane DeBacker, Deputy Commissioner will join us.
The USA|Kansas regional meetings offer a great opportunity for building and district level administrators to network with regional colleagues and participate in discussions about current issues in Kansas education.
The 2009 USA|Kansas Fall regional meetings have been scheduled during the weeks of August 24 and August 31. We have added two additional locations this year -- Oakley and Hutchinson.
