A Conference evaluation form is included in your registration packet. Please fill it out and drop it in the box provided for this purpose in Colvard Student Union · 2nd floor · MHEA Information Booth. Your comments and suggestions are extremely valuable in planning future MHEA conferences. If you wish to be included in our drawing for one FREE registration to Spring Conference 2020 (a $65 value), please include your name and address on the evaluation form. The drawing will be held before the end of the conference in the Exhibit Hall (Colvard Student Union · 2nd floor · Ballroom). Winners who are present will receive their coupon immediately; those not present will have their coupon mailed to them.
Endorsements MHEA does not necessarily endorse the views or opinions of the speakers nor does it necessarily endorse any products, textbooks, or curriculum offered or mentioned at the conference. We trust that you will exercise discernment in making choices for your family.
Teen Track participation does NOT make MHEA responsible for supervising your child(ren) during the
conference. We assume that participating students are responsible enough to manage their time and freedom wisely. We encourage you parents to communicate specific details to your sons and daughters, such as where you want them to be during those short break times and where they are not allowed to go (i.e., where to meet you during lunch break, whether or not you want them to leave the building during breaks, etc.).
We encourage the teens to stay in the building during the breaks and not wander around campus, but we will not be responsible for their obedience to these guidelines. MHEA will have volunteers at various posts on campus if the teens need direction.
Also, boyfriend/girlfriend-type behavior is forbidden during Teen Track (e.g., holding hands, kissing, flirting, etc.). MHEA designed Teen Track so participants can focus on what the Lord is teaching them during the various sessions. Disruptive students will be removed from Teen Track without an option to return unless accompanied by a parent (if space is available).
We look forward to encouraging your teens' walk with the Lord and for them to stand boldly for Christ.
