*TEACHERS: Your personal email address works better, because 1) your school email server may block our emails to you, 2) when you change schools, districts or employment status, you can still stay in touch with us. But, if you must use your school email address, perhaps you can give us an alternate email just in case.

The CLTA Conference is world language teachers of California's major opportunity during the year to learn new techniques and activities, to meet and share with colleagues across the state, to network, to find out what is going on in California and to see new materials (in the Exhibit Hall) and attend exhibitor sessions, where they demonstrate some of the materials they sell. It's an exciting, motivating and meaningful experience and you are part of that experience. Thank you again for sharing your expertise and knowledge with your colleagues across the state.
