Congratulations to Sabra Selling, from Cornerstone Christian, who won a  gift card by clicking on the drawing link in last month's Admin Advantage email.
Here is Sabra's feedback on the August Admin Advantage Updates: 
"It was cool to see pics of a protocol being used.  Thanks for the FAX number and you answered my question about needing more materials before I could even ask.  I enjoy the variety of information included.  Lastly, ready for the Webinars!!! I have our Head of School and Business Administrator written in on their calendars for them to look more into the TLE.  I am pushing this hard with them. "
