Special Announcement:

The Education America Network (EAN) sympathizes with all the victims of Hurricane Katrina. The devastation is unimaginable. The people of Louisiana and Mississippi have demonstrated great fortitude in surviving the storm and the after effects. The road to re-building communities and individual lives is beginning and is encouraging.

In response to Katrina and the subsequent recovery effort, the Education America Network (www.educationamerica.net) is offering school districts throughout Louisiana and Mississippi, as well as, schools and/or districts in the surrounding states who have taken in displaced students, access to EANs e-recruiting services and technology. If your school district has been affected by Hurricane Katrina, Education America Network has an account ready for you to access. Please contact Rob at 1-866-769-1638 or service@educationamerica.net to obtain your account information.
