5280's 2nd annual School Fair is coming up on Saturday, October 22. Unlike other fairs, 5280 has created an intimate environment where parents can meet representatives from Independent , Charter, and Public Schools for grades PK-12, and get a better understanding of what they each have to offer.   More than 30 schools in the Denver area will be represented, each with their own unique philosophy and educational programs to share with parents and students. The event is free and open to the public. Be sure to stop by Laura Barr's e.Merging Education booth! http://www.5280.com/page/school-fair-2011
