"Last year was my first time attending the MNAFEE conference and I'm excited to come back again this year! Our staff has found it so beneficial that we actually schedule no school on those days, so even our preschool assistants can attend every other year and we don't have to worry about finding subs. It is a great bonding time for our staff outside of normal school hours and gives us some fun new ideas to incorporate into our classrooms."
