Dear SWMESPA Members --

Greetings!  Welcome to the 2008-2009 school year.  The beginning of the school year is always so very exciting and renewing!  It would be nice to bottle some of the energy and use it during different times of the year.  Oh well another time! (Scroll down for a list of this year's meeting dates -- click on each date for details!)

I am hopeful that your up and running and have all of the bugs taken care of for a smooth sailing event-filled school year. 

As a division we are trying to give you different tools that will assist you in being successful in the principalship.  You should have received an email allowing you to sign up for the SWMESPA listserv.
