Event Details

ELC 2018

When:

ELC2018_logo

We have received several inquiries about the Education Leadership Conference regarding Hurricane Michael that looks to be impacting Florida this week.   We are closely monitoring weather reports, but it looks like the Hurricane will stay well far away from Jacksonville and will have little to no impact on the city.   While there may be some delays in travel, we anticipate that ELC will be held as planned….   Should the path of the Hurricane changes to affect Jacksonville in a meaningful way, we will notify all those attending ELC as soon as possible if plans will be changing.

Since ELC will be held as planned, all cancellation policies will still be in effect as originally stated.
