I feel very fortunate. My school is paying registration, mileage, food
expenses, and hotel for Friday throughTuesday. There are only 6 art
teachers in our district and we are all taking professional leave days.
BUT--we are from the state that has the lowest paid teachers in the
country--glad to have some perks.
