Saratoga Springs, Here I Come!

Upstate New York was a beautiful setting for this year's New York State Middle School Association conference. Since I got there a little early the day before, I had some time to stroll through town. What a lovely place! And I loved my accommodations. I stayed at the Carriage House Inn. I would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Saratoga Springs.

I really enjoyed meeting and talking with all of the middle school educators and neighboring vendors. And Maple Avenue Middle School was a wonderful host. I hope that those who attended the show had a pleasant experience.

You may remember me ... I was the one with the bright orange "I LOVE JANET" button. Like the many people who noticed my button, you may be wondering "Who is Janet?" Janet is Dr. Janet Allen, adolescent literacy expert and author of Recorded Books' new reading program, Plugged-in to Reading. If you'd like to learn more about it, please feel free to email me at beth@pluggedintoreading.com or call 1-800-638-1304 x1122.
