This national conference attracts 350-400 decision-makers from school districts all over the country and Canada; over 75% are superintendents, program directors or principals in alternative schools/programs!

We have these features just for exhibitors:

• A special exhibitor open house that will be scheduled at the same time as the pre-conference networking reception.
• A modified schedule, so that exhibitors will be on-site for Wednesday night and Thursday all day, with a departure time at 2 p.m. on Friday.
• A great conference location on the Riverwalk in San Antonio, TX.
• Exhibitors will be located on the same floor and immediately adjacent to the breakout rooms. High traffic will be the order of the day!
