The registration fee covers all conference sessions, conference materials, hors d’oeuvres at the opening reception, two continental breakfasts, and snacks during breaks. Attendees are responsible for their own accommodations, travel, and other meal costs.
Affiliates of CES National – persons from affiliated schools, centers, organizations, or individuals who have joined and paid dues for the current year – are eligible for discounted registration fees for the main conference and pre-conference activities.
PLEASE NOTE: All registrants claiming an affiliate fee waiver or a discount in the online registration form will need to verify their affiliation status up front (confirmed and paid prior to the time of registration). If you or your school/organization has not yet affiliated for the 2008-09 year, we recommend that you do so prior to the time you register. Otherwise, you must register at the non-affiliate rate.
For those schools, organizations, and individuals who are able to pay registration and affiliation fees by credit card, you will have the option of paying online for both when registration opens (you will be prompted to affiliate first, then you may register and make payment as an affiliate).
For those paying affiliation dues by check or purchase order, you will not be able to register at the affiliate rate until we have received your dues and updated your profile. Please allow 24 hours from the time we receive payment for your affiliation to be active.

Payment must accompany registration; your registration, including any pre-conference activities, which fill on a first-paid, first-served basis, will not be confirmed until we receive payment. Make checks or purchase orders payable to Coalition of Essential Schools, Inc. and send to:

PLEASE NOTE: In addition to paying by check or a purchase order, you may make payment online via a secure server using a MasterCard, VISA, American Express, or Discover card. Registrations are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis until October 31st or until conference capacity has been reached. You may register on-site, but availability is not guaranteed.
Parties of 15 or more paid registrants from the same school or organization are eligible to receive a 20% rebate off the full conference registration fee (this group discount does not apply to pre-conference sessions). Schools and organizations that qualify for the rebate should register all participants and pay all applicable fees up front. Once we have confirmed complete payment for all persons in the group, we will send reimbursement for 20% of the conference registration fee in the weeks following the conference.
If you are unable to attend the Fall Forum and would like to cancel your registration and request a refund, you must notify CES National in writing or by email, clind@essentialschools.org, prior to October 31st. A $100 cancellation fee will be charged.
