There are trips to Tijuana, Old Town Trolley Tours, and shopping.

sightseeing on you own. Job-Alike roundtables are held on Sunday morning, followed by a Brunch to honor newly selected Model Continuation High Schools.
“We are trying to balance fun with serious work,” says CCEA president Janet Knoeppel. “If you look at the incredible demands being put on continuation schools by the State and Federal governments, it is clear that we must work together to improve our schools and programs. This conference is designed to help us do just that.”
Full registration for the conference costs $245 for CCEA member ($285 for non-members, another good reason to join now). This includes the dinner/dance on Friday night, lunch on Saturday, and brunch on Sunday. The room rate at the Holiday Inn is $144 per night. The conference is designed to be funded through any of the staff development mechanisms, including NCLB. “But, even if your District can’t come up with the money, this conference is well worth paying for,” comments Knoeppel.
You can register for the conference online at www.cceanet.org or by sending in the attached registration form.
