What people have said about previous Expos

Great relevant information for the classroom teacher! I already ordered some materials from Flocabulary and am looking forward to using theleague.org's website. I brought back information for my school's principal, parent coordinator, and guidance counselors.
-- Abigail Rennert, Public School Teacher

I met a key contact through the Linkeducation Expo which has turned into a collaboration that could help thousands of college-bound high school students get very important scholarship information.

-- Alvin Rogers, Phattime.com “the learning network”

We attend several tabling fairs for educational settings and this was one of the most dynamic and well attended.
-- Deborah Field, Brooklyn Arts Council
