LOOKING FOR PARENT EXPERTS

Parents - We are looking to incorporate you (or your friends/loved ones) skills into our Western Union Family and learning.  As we finish out this year, and start into next year, Western Union plans to integrate more Project-Based Learning into the classrooms.  One great element is having outside experts come in and talk to the grades.
