Problems Opening Stuff?

This year the Web staff has upgraded to using Word 2007 for some of our downloadable documents. If you haven't upgraded to Microsoft Word 2007 (and why not says the Microsoft employee :-) ? ) you can download and install the converter, which will allow your Word 2003 program to view Word 2007 documents. Here is a link to the free download.

Calling All Parents
