The WLMA annual conference strives to keep costs as low as possible so that districts may send teams of participants. Therefore, presenters will not be financially reimbursed for travel, lodging, presentation preparation, or conference registration fees. Presenters may not charge for handouts.
All presenters are expected to register for the conference.
Email a copy of your handouts to Marianne Hunter ( mhunter@nthurston.k12.wa.us ) by September 1, so they can be posted on line. You will be responsible for copying your handout in sufficient quantity for your session. Present your receipt at registration desk for reimbursement. WLMA will reimburse printing costs up to $50.00. You will be notified of the capacity of your session after the submission deadline and the acceptance of your proposal. |
