Dear Friends,

As we begin this new year, we face the toughest economic challenges of our times. It’s affecting our schools with budget shortfalls, personnel cuts, growing class sizes, and the challenge to use our now more limited resources wisely to best educate our children. This is the reality of today’s financial landscape. At the same time, there is excitement about education, and the willingness of parents, educators, and the community to assume responsibility for educating children.

We want you to know that HWT can help you bring the best to your classrooms with affordable training, the best curriculum for less than our competitors, and free resources. Regardless of your budget, you don’t have to sacrifice essential instruction. I invite you to take advantage of all the resources we have available for you.

Check out the downloads in this newsletter, try the free activities and teaching tools on our website, or sign up for a free training webinar. Check back frequently because we are always expanding our offerings. We stand by our commitment to provide the best educational materials at the lowest possible prices. A good education is the one thing that we simply cannot afford to sacrifice.
