kinesiology/hpainstitute/ is scheduled for July 10-12, 2017.
This conference offers teachers a wide range of sessions that
cross the health and physical education spectrum. Attendees
get to see the “best of the best” and get the rare opportunity
to “eat, sleep, and live” health and physical education with
colleagues from across the commonwealth and country.
This amazing conference is a great way to get motivated
for a new school year.
