The 13th Annual Basic School Eastern Consortia Summer Institute will be held at the Marriott Crystal City in Arlington, VA on July 28-July 30, 2006. The theme, Differentiating for Diverse Learners, will continue a long tradition honoring an outstanding quality of learning experiences. Included will be inspiring keynote speakers and interactive workshops focusing on practical ideas that other schools can adapt and replicate.

The Crystal City Marriott offers an attractive setting for the Institute, along with attractive prices. Hotel reservations will be made directly with the Marriott and the rate is just $109 single/double/triple/quad per night. Crystal City is located one stop away from Reagan National Airport on the Metro Blue Line. The Crystal City Metro station is a short stroll from the hotel. It also offers the opportunity for families to come along and enjoy all that the Washington Capital Region has to offer.

The location of Crystal City makes it easy to cross the river to the District of Columbia, Georgetown and all the monuments and museums. The charming Old Town Alexandria is minutes away by Metro rail or taxi. And we can’t neglect the opportunities for shopping. The outstanding Pentagon City Mall is the next stop on the Metro line. We promise to teach everyone how to ride the fantastic Metro system in comfort and safety.

We are looking forward to one of the most enriching and exciting gatherings of Basic School folks ever. Put the date on your calendar today! For more information call 703-538-8492.
