Conference Deadlines Fast Approaching

We’re less than two months away from the annual SmartFindExpressSolutions Summit!  The eSchool Solutions team is in full conference mode – developing presentations, preparing handouts, planning the welcome reception, and more.  As a result, you’ll leave New Orleans with the tools you need to successfully manage SmartFindExpress, as well as real solutions – from your peers – to generate greater efficiencies in substitute management.  And, we guarantee you’re going to have fun in the process!

Please make note of two important – fast approaching – deadlines:

  • Early conference registration ends Monday, March 1.  Don’t miss the chance to save your district money! 
  • Discounted hotel room rate and availability guarantee ends Monday, March 8.  The Sheraton New Orleans is offering a great price on rooms; just $129 (+ tax), but you’ll have to act fast!  Remember the French Quarter Festival starts Saturday, April 10 and the hotel is sold out that night.

I’ve created this handy dandy SmartFindExpress Solutions Summit checklist for your convenience.  Remember to:

  • Complete your online conference registration by March 1 to receive the early registration discount
  • Make your flight arrangements (plan to arrive in time for the welcome reception Wednesday, April 7 from 4:30 to 6:00P)
  • Contact Airport Shuttle New Orleans to arrange your ride to/from the airport/hotel (a rental car is not necessary)
  • Make your hotel reservation at the Sheraton New Orleans (as noted above)
  • Check out Shelley’s Picks for a list of fun things to do each evening – or over the weekend, if you’re sticking around
  • Go to www.neworleanscvb.com to request a Visitor’s Planning Guide; access to great information regarding restaurants,music,area attractions and tours, as well as area maps and coupons
  • Bring plenty of business cards to share with your peers

We can’t wait to welcome you to Crescent City.  Laissez les bon temps rouler y’all!

Don’t forget to arrive in time for our welcome reception, Wednesday, April 7.  Join us from 4:30 to 6:00P for a little Mardi Gras fun.
