 Sierra Madre  See map

Registration begins September 1, 2011

Want your child to learn important skills such as public speaking, organization, problem solving and time management? MLC is a statewide youth education program involving more than 2,600 high school students in a 9-month, hands-on experience.

Teen delegates write bills, select governmental positions to role play, attend statewide training conferences and run for various elected offices. The program reaches its peak in Sacramento at the State Capitol over President’s Day weekend. There, real government steps aside and the teen delegates take over, using the historic halls, chambers and offices of our State Capitol, Supreme Court and Governor’s Office.

This unique program will be held weekly at the Sierra Madre Youth Activity Center from 6:30-8:30 pm. Meetings will be held weekly and will begin September 22, 2011. For more information please email jennifersullivan@ymcala.org or call her at 626-432-1508.

What are these "organizations that can assist educators in providing an additional incomeRead More source for school supplies?" What are the other "big retailers" besides Staples that are helping teachers with rewards programs? This is a great subject but there is little detail here beyond a link to the Staples program. Would love to read a follow up piece with more useful information.
