Just a few heads up for the GDC crowd.

Registration is opening "soon" which I am guessing means next week. PERKINS and CTEIG can both pay for it under PD and your district is required to send you out to relevant PD as part of getting that money.

Start getting your district forms and approvals you will need to attend. I haven't seen prices for this year, but I am budgeting $5500 for hotel, registration, mileage, meals etc. Obviously if you are flying that would be an added expense. 

I cannot stress enough, moving early saves you money. The passes are cheaper and more importantly, the good cheap hotels go fast.

If you have never been. It is awesome. Even if GDC does not have a thing that says k12 educators. It is invaluable. If you can only go two days, you want to do Tuesday and Wednesday. As we get closer we will organize some sort of meet up for us even if GDC doesn't help us out with that.

On that note: As I mentioned a while ago, the Educator's summit did finally acknowledge our existence again. I have no idea if that means that they are open to submissions for k12, but if you are submitting the submissions call ends tonight at midnight. I encourage anyone thinking about submitting to do so. More submissions is harder to ignore than a few.

I submitted a talk on my Parsely Unit.  We'll see.  Hopefully, I'll get at least a little consideration.
