Facebook - March 28, 20007
Wednesday night, March 28 when Henry Coates from Drew spoke about what kids
are doing on the internet. That program was at 7:30 at the Junior School.
Dear "Facebook" team and others:
What a great program -we had 153 participants and the evaluations look great.
Henry was knowledgeable, relaxed and funny. His evals are great. This program
is so needed and really helps parents see that they aren't powerless against the
forces of "interconnectedness".
Thanks to Jim Sanderson for making all of the technology work last night. The
whole presentation stands or falls on that!
