The Better Together Conference is mandatory for all JMCS staff that are at half-time or greater. February 11th -13th are non-student work days, so there is no need to cover classes. The conference is February 11th-13th for JCMS staff.

If you are less than full-time and will expend extra hours in attending, please speak with your director about supplemental pay.  If you are hourly (less than half-time) but would like to attend, please reach out to your director. 

JMCS will pay for staff travel expenses: including mileage, food and lodging. JMCS will assist in making arrangements for staff as needed (flights, shuttles, etc). 

JMCS Administrative Coordinator Dawn Ryley will email with further information for booking flights, hotel and reimbursements.

 

Please email Dawn Ryley for questions.

John Muir Charter Schools may cover conference and travel costs for one partner-participant per site.

Additional participants may attend for the general admission cost of $400 if registered by December 1st 2024. After this time registration is $500. This includes all meals during the conference time, but does not include travel or hotel expenses. The Hotel Maya has given us a special rate of $229 per night.  You will be receiving an email from JMCS Administrative Coordinator Dawn Ryley with further information for booking flights, hotel, and payment if applicable.
