Summer Workshop at Truman Presidential Library and Museum

Just passing along a great teacher opportunity for this summer from the Truman Presidential Library.

Come join us and your fellow teachers this July 20-24 at the Harry S.Truman Library and Museum for the "Between the Wars" teacher conference. Historians from across the nation will present and interact with teachers and teachers will research the Truman archives as they create lesson plans. The conference includes trips to the Truman Home, American Jazz Museum, Negro Leagues Baseball Museum and the Missouri Valley Room at the Kansas City Public Library.

The summer conference is free to teachers with breakfast and lunch provided. For teachers living further out, hotel accommodations at the Hilton Garden Inn is also provided free of charge. Teachers are responsible for their transportation costs to and from the conference.

Teachers may choose to enroll for two graduate hours in continuing education from the University of Missouri - Kansas City for $75.00 per hour.
