Dear BOOSTers,

 
As we move into the holiday season, we are truly moved by all that you do to support the children, youth, families, and communities that you serve. Thank you for your on-going commitment to a greater world for our youth. With that in mind, the BOOST team is revving up for our 10th Anniversary Conference this April and we're going to make it the best one yet! For those of you outside of California, there will be plenty of warmth and sunshine waiting for you. Together we make a difference!

MASTER CLASS HIGHLIGHT
Gallup research proves that people succeed when they focus on what they do best. When you identify your talents and develop them into strengths, you are more productive, more engaged, and more ready to impact the lives of colleagues and students who depend on you. In this engaging Master Class, you will learn how more than 15 million people around the world have identified talents in themselves and others – and how great educators around the country are putting this information to good use!
ACCOMMODATIONS
The following hotels are now available for booking! All hotels will sell out quickly so we encourage you to book early to get your desired hotel.
